Need a name for your next PC? Need to fill in the identities of your background NPCs, but nothing is coming up? Want something catchy for your next Big Bad, but your brain is blanking out on the details?
I have just the thing.
Below is an assembled list of pre-generated character names that I came up with in my spare time. Feel free to steal, warp and mash together anything you see, but as a common courtesy to others, let people know which names you're taking.
-Aeros (taken by Zercon) - Gen. form of Greek aer, and roughly meaning "of the air/lower atmosphere"
-Argentos (taken by Blue) - From the Latin word "argentum", meaning "silver", and usually used in compound words; was mashed up with a Greek genitive here to make a name that roughly means "of silver"
-Aurum (taken by Blue) - A Latin word for gold.
- Bang-Bang - Onomatopoeia for two loud explosions in quick succession.
- Biteforce - A "bite force" is the measurement of the pound-force of a bite (such as an animal bite) per area of one square inch.
-Blacktop (taken by Toggs and Zercon) - Black material used to surface roads, such as asphalt.
- Bullet Wing - Derived from the words "bullet" and "wing".
- Burn-Burn - It's the word "burn" repeated twice.
- Cant - Hypocritical speech that attempts to make one look morally superior.
- Caput Mortem - Latin for "worthless remains" or "dead head". It refers to useless substances left over from chemical operations, or metal compounds of a brown-red colour. It is also another name for the cardinal purple and mummy brown pigments.
- Chemyk - A stylized derivative of the word "chemical".[/font]
- Cirrus - A tufty, wispy cloud found at high altitudes, sometimes resembling a horse's tail.
- Courser - A fast horse; a dog used for hunting animals via sight, like a greyhound.[/font]
- Coverfire - Military firing intended to make the enemy take cover, thus protecting a person or group in battle from opposite fire.
- Crusher - One who crushes.
- Digamma - Meaning "double gamma", it was a former letter of the Greek alphabet. Gamma rays are also a type of radiation.
- Dynamos - Word-play on the term "dynamite" (a type of explosive) and, once again, a Greek genitive form tacked on. (Not necessarily the proper form, either.) Also could be a play on the word "dynamic"; meanings could be "of dynamite" and "of constant activity or change", respectively.
- Forceclaw - Derived from the terms "force" and "claw".
- Galea - Something shaped like a helmet.
- Gladius - Latin for "sword", and also referring to the distinct sword of Ancient Roman foot soldiers.
- Glossograph - Something used to recording a tongue's movements during speaking.
-Grinder (taken by Zercon) - Something used to grind up material; one who grinds.
- Habroneme - Something that has the appearance of very fine threads.
- Heelwheels - Derived from the words "heel" and "wheels", it could possibly refer to one whose wheel-adorned heels are a noticeable feature.
- Jiffy - Unlike what some may think, this is an actual unit of time in computer science. It refers to 0.167 or 0.2 seconds, depending on whether you use the American or European definition, respectively.
- Jitter - An irregular movement or variation, especially one that applies to electronics.
- Keyhole
- Khopesh
- Laccolith - An intruding sheet of rock between two layers of sedimentary rock, pushed into a dome-like shape by pressure from magma and possibly deforming the rest of the rock.
- Leaplegs - Derived from the words "leap" and "legs".
- Libena
- Lockpick
