This week, for all you hardworking writers out there, I’ve created a MASTER list of fantasy names.
The hardest thing sometimes for us to create, isn’t great characters, plot ideas, or shocking twists. Noooo siree. It’s original names for our characters and towns! So, I’ve done the heavy lifting for you.
All you have to do is scour the page of 300 unique, original fantasy names and keep this list a reference while you write that fandom-worthy novel of yours.
Enjoy and happy writing!
(PLEASE NOTE THIS LIST IS BETTER VIEWED ON A DESKTOP BECAUSE WORDPRESS SUCKS SOMETIMES AND MAKES VIEWING FROMA PHONE MISERABLE)

Hi!
I love writing story’s, not that I finish any of them. At the moment I’m making a fantasy book for one of my class. I have used a few names and about 2 places from here.
Thanks for helping me! I’m only 13 and I’m trying to get better at naming stuff.Reply

Hi Rae, thanks for this great list!
Is there any chance you have these available in a text document? I would like to use them for a name generator I am building for personal use and it’d be faster than copying, pasting and categorizing myself.
Thanks!

Rae Elliotton February 22, 2019 at 5:02 pm
Hi Cody!
Glad you find the list helpful! Unfortunately no, I do not have the names available in a text document. I’m afraid I’m going to have to leave you with homework there. But enjoy the list and I hope it continues to come in handy for you!
Happy writing 🙂
