Naming the Undead

Choosing a Kindred name should reflect their clan, domain, and age. Consider these:

Does the name reflect a European, Latin, or modern origin?
Does it hint at their Clan (e.g., Ventrue, Toreador) or status?
Should it sound noble, mysterious, or tragically romantic?
Will it include a "Von," "Le," "La," or another signifier of status?
Does the name capture their personal history or current ambition?
