Fantasy NPC Names

A drop-in roster of 144 fantasy NPC names split across six ancestries — human, elven, dwarven, halfling, orcish, and tiefling — so you're never stuck reaching for 'the guard' or 'the shopkeeper' twice in one session. Every first name is paired with a surname built in the same voice as its ancestry, so a dwarf named Ironvein and a tiefling named Ashveil both sound like they belong to their world, not a random syllable mill.

How to use: Skim the ancestry that matches the NPC in front of you, or open the generator to roll a fresh batch when the list runs dry. First and last names are detachable — keep a first name and swap in a surname from elsewhere on the list (or your own setting) when you need a family match, an alias, or a name that leans more local to one region of your world.
