Frequently asked questions

Does it make dragonborn names too?

Yes — note "dragonborn" for shorter, speakable names suited to a D&D player character rather than an elder wyrm.

Can I match the name to an element?

Mention fire, frost, storm, or shadow in your description and the roots and tone follow.
