Elf name generator

What makes a name sound elven?

Elven names in fantasy tend to be long and musical: lots of vowels, soft consonants like l, th and r, and gentle endings such as -iel, -wen and -ion. Family names often come from nature or the sky, like Moonwhisper or Silverleaf. The elf name generator follows those patterns, so every result sounds graceful and ancient.

How to use it
