The elvish phonological patterns are inspired by constructed languages like Quenya and Sindarin, but don't reproduce protected vocabulary. They are original within the same sonic spirit.
Fantasy City Name Generator
Create names for cities, towns, and regions for fantasy worlds with distinct linguistic families.
City names that reveal their founders' culture — through the sound itself.
In well-built fantasy worlds, a city's name already says a lot about its founders. Elvish names are fluid and long, with many vowels and soft consonants. Dwarven names are heavy and consonant-rich, evoking stone and mountain. Human names vary more, mixing elements from diverse cultures. Ancient ruins use obsolete patterns that sound like dead languages. Each generated name comes with a suffix indicating the type of settlement.

- Select the linguistic family corresponding to the founding race of the city or region.
- Use the suffix shown below the name as an indicator of settlement type (city, village, citadel, etc.).
