How do halfling names work?

Halfling names are short, round and friendly, often ending in -o, -y, -kin or -ie. They should sound like someone you would invite in for a second breakfast. Nicknames are common and stick for life.

Family names come from home and comfort: food, drink, gardens, hills and the habits of the family. Adventuring halflings sometimes earn a new family name after a famous (or infamous) moment.

Halflings are the D&D take on hobbits, so these names also work if you need a hobbit name for a story or another game.
