The choices:

Gender:

Origin: Any origin, Draconic Bloodline, Wild Magic, Divine Soul, Shadow Magic, Storm Sorcery, Aberrant Mind, Clockwork Soul.
Name format: Name and epithet, Name only.

Each press gives you 8 names. "Show 8 more" adds 8 you haven't seen yet, until the names for the choices you've made run out.

A sorcerer's magic is in their blood, and their name often hints at where it came from: a dragon, a storm, the heavens or something stranger. This sorcerer name generator gives D&D 5e sorcerers a first name with a touch of the arcane and an epithet for their Sorcerous Origin, from the Draconic Bloodline to Wild Magic.

The sorcerer in D&D

A D&D sorcerer is born with magic rather than learning it, and can bend spells with Metamagic.

Origins: the magic comes from somewhere: a Draconic Bloodline or Wild Magic in the Player's Handbook, or a Divine Soul, Shadow, Storm, Aberrant Mind or Clockwork Soul in later books.
Sorcerer or wizard? A wizard studies magic from books; a sorcerer has it in their blood.

Naming a sorcerer

A sorcerer's name often hints at where the power came from.

The name (Drusilla, Draven, Vesper) has something strange about it.
The epithet follows the origin: a Draconic sorcerer "Child of the Wyrm", a Storm sorcerer "the Storm-Born", an Aberrant Mind "Who Hears Whispers".
