How the Path of Exile Witch Name Generator Works

It works from 400 names and name parts, which combine into over 28,000 possible results.

The choices:

Ascendancy: Any Ascendancy, Necromancer, Elementalist, Occultist, Infernalist, Blood Mage.
Name Format:
- Name and epithet, e.g. Xenelle the Nightwither
- First name only, e.g. Ophyx

Each press gives you 8 names. "Show 8 more" adds 8 you haven't seen yet. Once you've seen them all, "Start again" shuffles the whole list again.

In Path of Exile, everyone who washes up in Wraeclast is an exile, and the Witch is the one who brought her magic with her. Her name should sound like it. This Path of Exile Witch name generator pairs a sharp, strange first name with an epithet that fits your build, so a Necromancer gets the Tombmother and an Elementalist gets the Rimestorm.

Epithets for each Ascendancy

The Witch specialises through her Ascendancy, and each has its own feel:

Necromancer: minions, corpses and souls. Epithets like the Soulbinder, Bonewhisper, the Gravemother.
Elementalist: fire, cold and lightning. the Rimestorm, the Arcstriker, Emberfury.
Occultist: curses, chaos and the void. the Hexmistress, Blacktongue, the Hungering Void.
Infernalist (Path of Exile 2): hellfire and demonic pacts. of the Burning Pact, the Brimstone Bride.
Blood Mage (Path of Exile 2): power paid for in blood. the Crimson Tithe, Veinweaver.

Leave it on Any Ascendancy if you haven't decided yet, or if your build mixes a bit of everything.

Names from Wraeclast

The game's own spellcasters show the style. Among the women you meet or fight:

Doedre Darktongue and Shavronne of Umbra, servants of Malachai whose names live on in the unique items named after them.
Piety, the alchemist of Act 3, whose name is a bitter joke given what she does.
Atziri, Queen of the Vaal, and Zana, Master Cartographer.

The pattern: short, unusual first names, often with a hard z, x or th, and an epithet or title that says what someone has done or become. The first names here follow it (Seryx, Xenith, Yzarith); they're new names, made to fit the game rather than taken from it.

Using the name in game

Names are unique across all players, so popular ones go fast. Generate a few and keep backups.
The game doesn't accept spaces in character names, which is why the ladder is full of underscores. Use Seryx_the_Soulbinder, run it together as SeryxSoulbinder, or keep the epithet for your own head-canon.
A new league is a new character. A theme helps: name each league's Witch after the same family, or after the epithet of the build you're trying.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the Witch Ascendancies in Path of Exile?

In Path of Exile 1 the Witch can become a Necromancer, an Elementalist or an Occultist. In Path of Exile 2 her Ascendancies include the Infernalist and the Blood Mage. The generator has epithets to suit each.

Can I use spaces in a Path of Exile character name?

No: use underscores instead (Seryx_the_Soulbinder), or join the words together. Names are also unique across all players, so have a backup ready.

Are these names from the game?

No. The first names are new names in the game's style, so they won't clash with a character from the story. The characters mentioned in the article (Doedre, Shavronne, Piety, Atziri, Zana) are from the game.
