FAQ
Does this reproduce Tolkien character names?
No. The lists are original blends tuned for Shire cozy surnames and broader epic-fantasy given names so you can brainstorm hobbit-style or elvish-sounding labels without copying published character names.
What does the optional second name toggle do?
When enabled, a family-style token from a mixed list is appended—think rustic surnames, homestead compounds, or traveler's bynames. Disable it for given names only.
How does gender filtering interact with the second name?
Male and Female use different given-name pools. Any merges both. Optional second names ignore gender and always draw from the same list.
How many names can I roll per click?
Up to 100 lines per run with uniqueness on first names within the batch until the pool is exhausted.
How is this different from the Fantasy generator?
The general Fantasy tool aims at broad RPG heroics. This page narrows syllables toward Tolkien-inspired cadence and halfling-style surnames.
