Wilden names - Dungeons & Dragons

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

Wilden are plantlike creatures with bodies of bark, vines, and leaves. Each wilden contains the spirit of nature, which has manifested to protect itself from outside corruptions, and to revive the natural balance lost in many places.
The spirits of the wilden can take different aspects, all of which will alter the wilden's body to better serve the purpose of that aspect.
A hunter's aspect will make a wilden more camouflaged while the destroyer's aspect will cause barbs to grow all across the wilden's skin. The ancient's aspect will turn a wilden's leaves white. Changes in aspect do not only change their looks, it also changes their personality. The hunter is secretive and reserved, the destroyer is aggressive, and the ancient is cautious and thoughtful.

Wilden age in a similar fashion as the seasons, each season marking a period in the wilden's life, starting in spring and ending in winter. However, a wilden can live for more than a century, so each 'season' in a wilden's life can last for decades.

The wilden are a fairly young species and while there are male and female wilden, they all consider themselves to be part of a greater whole. Even when speaking about themselves they will use 'we' instead of 'I'.

Wilden names are not related to nature as you might expect, so no 'Ironbark' or 'Wildwood'.
Male names all seemed to be roughly the same length, so I continued that trend. This wasn't the case with female names, which seemed to be more varied. Female names are usually more melodic than male names.
