Goblin names - Dungeons & Dragons

This name generator will give you 10 names that will generally fit the goblins in the Dungeons & Dragons universe.

Goblins are small, vicious humanoids who are acutely aware they're weak compared to most other races. This doesn't stop their ferocity however, it simply fuels their thirst to conquer others and subject them to the goblin's cruel ways. All those low on the societal rank, which includes some goblins, will have to serve the higher goblins like slaves. Those who prove to be more useful may be treated more like a pet, but goblins don't know kindness for pets the same way many other races do.

Goblin names are usually short and guttural sounding. There are longer names as well though, often among female goblins, but 1-2 syllable names are generally more common.
Many goblins are also known simply by a type of nickname, like No-Nose or Spiderbait. These nicknames are often derogatory in nature, perhaps saved for those lower in society. The last 5 names in this generator will be such names.

To start, simply click on the button to generate 10 random names. Don't like the names? Simply click again to get 10 new random names.
