Behind the names

About Orc names

Orc names favor compact syllables, strong consonants, and earned bynames that record deeds, scars, clans, or homelands. The goal is forceful rather than crude: each name should fit a complete culture with hunters, smiths, shamans, diplomats, and war leaders. These examples combine Germanic, Turkic, and steppe-inspired rhythms into original, pronounceable forms.
