Unsullied names - Game of Thrones (ASoIaF)

This name generator will give you 10 random names for the Unsullied, part of both the Game of Thrones tv show and the A Song Of Ice And Fire book series.

The Unsullied are slaves trained from a young age to become a fearsome army of disciplined soldiers. They're castrated at a young age, which removes any urges which could hamper their battle prowess, their discipline and obedience.

The Unsullied are chosen as young slaves, based on their physique. When they're 5 years old their intensely cruel training start. Besides training them to become killing machines, they also make sure they lose all self-worth, their identities and any empathy they may have left.
If that wasn't horrible enough, any slave who fails a part of his training will be killed.

To continue the stripping away of self-worth and identity, Unsullied receive a new name every day, a random name chosen by picking a token from a bucket.
The names are demeaning, which further adds to showing them their place and role in life.

Unsullied names consist of two parts. The first word is an adjective and the second word is some type of vermin or other type of (pest) animal.

Note that I haven't been able to find too much information on their actual names, besides what I've mentioned above. One source mentioned the first word in their names is always a color, I have added way more options than just colors.
I mainly did this because it seems more logical when thousands of unsullied are given a new, random name every day. Unless they include all the color names like 'cyan', 'maroon', 'violet' and so on, some Unsullied would likely end up with the same name. Which the slavers probably don't care about, but I do, at least from a naming stand point.

I also included the other words because they continue to add to the stripping of self-worth. 'Dirt Bug', 'Grease Rat' and 'Grime Leech' sound even more demeaning than 'Grey Worm' or 'Blue Beetle'.
Anyway, it's something you may wish to consider yourself.
