Publié : 02 sept. 2025, 14:52
Hi everyone,
I’ve been worldbuilding for my new fantasy novel and I’m struggling with naming characters, places, and magical creatures. I want names that feel unique, immersive, and memorable without being too complicated.
I’m especially interested in resources, techniques, or patterns that help with generating All Fantasy names that really stick in the reader’s mind. Should I draw inspiration from real-world languages, mythologies, or purely invent them?
Any examples of names that feel natural yet fantastical would be amazing. How do you balance creativity with readability in naming?
Thanks in advance for your advice!
