Fantasy Name Generators

Why should I use a fantasy name generator?

Whether you're starting a game, novel or anything else that may require a believable fantasy name (or a large number of them), you may hit a wall quite fast. Many names are already taken by other gamers or authors, and the perfect one simply seems out of reach. This is why using fantasy name generators with millions of possible ideas is never a bad idea when it comes to giving your characters and locations an identity.

Helping authors and gamers in their creative process with random names

On average, Story Shack users generate 16 ideas each time they use one of the name generators.The site prides itself in offering a kind of simpler name generator that doesn't request a large amount of input before giving back anything. It's all click and go. So go and find your perfect fantasy names in one of the many race name generators, like the demon name generator.

Fantasy names really need to be memorable

The best epics typically have the best fantasy worlds. Where would world building be without names? Characters, cities, races, battles, spells…the list goes on. If you're to create the next Gandalf the Grey or Albus Dumbledore, a bit of inspiration is not going to hurt you.

The Story Shack: committed to fantasy name generation

For years, The Story Shack has been providing an online platform for creators. As the platform grew, so did founder Martin Hooijmans' passion for storytelling and web design. Growth is nothing without vision, and this is why it was a perfectly logical step to transform The Story Shack into a place where people not only come to host their work, but also to kickstart it. The first tool, a writing prompt generator, was born and turned into a success. It's now used by thousands of storytellers every month to start their new projects.

Story ideas are not random name ideas, however, so now Martin is committed to providing the full package: random name generators, location name generators, real names, character names, worlds, weapons and you can keep going. Enjoy, and all the best of luck with your projects!
