Steampunk Name Generator

What kind of genre is Steampunk?

Steampunk is a subgenre of science fiction or fantasy that typically features steam-powered machinery, especially in a setting inspired by industrialized Western civilization during the 19th century. Steampunk works are often set in an alternative history of the 19th century's British Victorian era or American "Wild West", in a post-apocalyptic future during which steam power has regained mainstream use, or in a fantasy world that similarly employs steam power.

The term steampunk was first used in the late 1970s and early 1980s, and refers to a style of fashion that combines historical elements with anachronistic technological features inspired by science fiction. The most common visual theme associated with steampunk is the creation of intricate machinery using gears and other clockwork mechanisms. Other common themes include brass and copper machines, chessboards, cogs, antique firearms, and airships.
