Updated: 2026-04-24 (created: 2023-10-01)

The Beastmen of Warhammer are the children of Chaos in the deep forests, twisted hybrids of man and beast who hate civilisation with a primal fury. Their names are short, harsh and full of growls, hisses and bestial snarls. This generator forges names in that same brutish style, ready for cunning Bestigors, wild Ungors, towering Doombulls and the war chiefs who lead entire brayherds out of the woods to gore and burn.

About Beastmen Names

The Beastmen are creatures of Chaos who roam the forests of the Old World and the Mortal Realms. Their tongue, the Dark Tongue, is full of growls and clipped barks, and their names follow suit: short, ugly to noble ears and easy to roar across a battlefield.

How To Use The Generator

Tap the button to spawn a new herd of names suitable for gors, ungors, bestigors, centigors, minotaurs and Beastlords. Use them as is, or shorten and harden them further for shock troops and lowly herd beasts.

Tips For Naming Beastmen Characters

Favour hard consonants like K, G, Z, R and TH, and keep most names to one or two syllables. Longer, more terrible names suit Doombulls and Beastlords, hinting at the weight of skulls they have piled before the herdstone. Adding a brutal title such as the Gorebound or Skull Splitter cements their menace.
