    FAQ

    What structure does each suggestion use?

    Every line is a given name followed by a surname-style token. Both parts are randomly paired from fiction-forward lists bundled with the tool.

    How is this different from the Full Name Generator?

    Full names use everyday first-name pools plus general surnames. Character names use a dedicated pairing tuned for readable cast lists in prose or tabletop games.

    How many character names can I request?

    Up to 100 paired lines per run. The generator avoids repeating the same full string when possible within uniqueness limits.

    What if I only need surnames?

    Use the Surnames tool when you already have first names and need bulk family labels without regenerating given names.

    Can I rely on these for published work?

    Treat output as a first draft. Editors often want names adjusted for clarity, diversity of origin, or series continuity.
