About
Generate human character names for D&D 5e and other tabletop RPGs. Humans have the most varied naming conventions in fantasy — short, pronounceable, often with descriptive surnames (Aldric Ironheart, Brigid Brightwater). Pair with a class to get an optional epithet — "the Wise" for wizards, "Shadowstep" for rogues, "the Just" for paladins. Pool draws on D&D 5e SRD human name lists (OGL-licensed) and adds Markov-chain variations for variety. Useful for fast PC name generation, NPC populations, and player handouts where you need 10 plausible human names in a hurry.
FAQ
Are these from the D&D 5e SRD?
Yes — the SRD human pool is the core, with procedural Markov variations layered in. Names are usable in commercial 5e/A5E content under OGL.
What does the class epithet do?
When you select a class, about 50 % of names append a class-flavored title or epithet: "Aldric the Bold" (fighter), "Marenda Spellbinder" (wizard). The rest are plain names.
Can I use these for Pathfinder or 5.5?
Yes. Human naming conventions are largely consistent across editions and most 5e-derivative systems.
