What makes a good wizard name?

Something that sounds old and a little grand, plus a title that hints at their specialty: Runeweaver for an enchanter, the Starseer for a diviner, Ashcloak for someone who blew up their last tower. Keep the first name easy to say, because the title already does the heavy lifting.

How do wizard names work?

Wizards spend their lives studying, so their names tend to sound old and formal: three syllables, Latin-like endings such as -imus, -aric or -andra, and a title that says what they are known for. The title often matters more than the name, because it is how other wizards know them.

Wizards can be any race, so you can also take a first name from the race generator and add a wizard title. A gnome called Fizzwick Runeweaver or a dwarf called Borin of the Hollow Library is instantly memorable.
