Podling names - The Dark Crystal

This name generator will give you 10 random names fit for the Podlings part of The Dark Crystal universe.

Podlings are small, potato-headed beings who love nothing more than to sing, tend their gardens and make music. They live in giant seed-pods, hence their name. But the name in their native tongue is "apopiapoiopidiappididiapipob", or "master gardeners who live in bulging plants" in English.
For centuries they lived in relative peace, but during the Age of Division (when urSkeks divided into Skeksis and urRus) their peaceful life didn't last.

Not many podling names exist, but those who do are generally short and simple. Male names can be as short as a single syllable and female names can be up to 3 syllables long. But even these longer names are generally melodic and easy to pronounce.

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.
