Daggerheart ancestry name generators

Daggerheart is a Tabletop Roleplaying Game by Darrington Press focused on collaborative world building and story telling, while using dice and cards to create both elements of chaos and control. Within the base game, you can play as 18 different ancestries, while also picking from a range of other character customization options to bring your character to life.

Daggerheart uses Hope and Fear dice. These are two 12-sided dice, and their result will determine the outcome of an action. If the Hope die is higher, you gain a Hope point to fuel abilities and push the narrative into your favor. But if the Fear dice is higher, the DM gains a Fear point with which to challenge your character and their goal.

The game has seen immediate popularity upon its launch, in part thanks to their creators as Darrington Press is a subsidiary of the Critical Role Productions company, which itself has a highly successful media empire with one of the most popular D&D series, a variety of smaller TTRPG series, many podcasts, comics, books, and also Amazon animated series of their D&D series.
Its success meant it was hard to get any physical copy of the game due to it being sold out near immediately. Fortunately, more stock arrived, and a digital version is also available. A free, quick start adventure can be found on their site as well.

I've created a name generator for each of their 18 ancestries. But keep in mind that Daggerheart is purposely light on lore so each group can build their own as they see fit. This means little lore is available both in terms of ancestry descriptions and especially name examples (there are none). So the names below are more examples based on popular fantasy tropes than anything based on official lore.
