🎲 D&D Name Generators: Races, Taverns, Towns and Magic Items

Names for D&D characters of every race, plus taverns, towns, guilds and magic items for your campaign.

43 generators available

Every D&D race has its own naming customs. Tieflings take infernal or virtue names, dwarves carry a clan name, and elves use a child name until they come of age. These generators follow the rules from the Player's Handbook and the wider lore, and each page explains them, so a name fits your character's background instead of just sounding fantasy.

A campaign needs more than characters. Name the tavern where the party meets with the Tavern Name Generator, their hometown with the place name generators, and the loot with the weapon and item generators.
