How the names are made

somehowNAMES is a free name generator for World of Warcraft: Forever. It does not run an AI service or copy a finished name database. Each race has its own curated building blocks.

3150Given names in the pools
450,100+possible basic combinations

For humans, dwarves, night elves, gnomes, orcs, undead, tauren, trolls and Skyborne.

01

Race specific given names

Each race has its own pool and sound patterns. Handpicked names are favored, with extra variations for range.

02

Meaningful compound surnames

Curated English fragments create surnames such as Falconward, Ironbeard or Moonsong.

03

Style and class

Your style leads the selection. Class adds a small accent without forcing a cliché.

04

Quality filters

The generator filters repeats, similar name families and awkward combinations before showing three suggestions.

Please note: WoW Forever name rules are still being checked during the beta. Character limits and the new Skyborne pool will be compared with the game before public launch.

Quick answers

Frequently asked questions

What is this WoW Forever name generator for?

It makes complete character names with a given name and surname. Race, gender, class and style shape the suggestions.

Can I transform my own name?

Yes. Enter a first name or nickname and choose Transform to create race inspired variants, or Keep it to generate surnames for your existing name.

Are these names available in the game?

We cannot check game servers. If a name is taken, reroll either part or generate new suggestions.

Are these official lore names?

No. These are original lore inspired names from an independent fan project.

Will my saved names stay?

Yes. Saved names remain in this browser after closing and reopening the page, and they are available in both site languages.

Why does class have a small effect?

Race and personality shape a name most. Class only adjusts the weight of a few name parts.
