How are the names generated?

Each name is built in your browser by combining an honorific (Sir or Dame) with a curated given-name list and an optional epithet. Nothing is sent to a server, so every click gives a fresh combination.

What does the epithet option add?

When enabled, the generator appends a title like "the Bold" or "the Ironclad" after the given name, in the style common to knight characters in fiction and games.

Are these official Dungeons & Dragons names?

No. The names are original combinations inspired by common medieval and fantasy naming conventions, and are not tied to any specific game license.

Can I get a female knight name?

Yes. Set the gender toggle to Female to use the "Dame" honorific with a female given-name list, or Random to mix male and female styles on each generate.

Does the tool save my favorite names?

Recently generated names are kept in a history list stored in your browser so you can revisit them later. Clear History removes them.
