About Avowed names

Avowed takes place in the Living Lands, a frontier island of Eora, the same world as Pillars of Eternity, so its names follow the cultures Obsidian has been building since 2015. Your Envoy comes from the Aedyr Empire, where human and wood elf names have an Old English shape: Edér, Aldwyn, Wenna, with sturdy surnames like Teylecg or Corfiser. Vailian settlers and merchants in Paradis use Italian-sounding names with the aristocratic particle mes or di (Giatta, Pallegina mes Rèi). Orlans lean Welsh and Cornish (Yatzli, Hiravias, Brennoc), aumaua names draw on Māori and Polynesian sounds with long vowels (Kai, Kana Rua, Tekēhu), boreal dwarves use short Arctic-flavored names like Sagani, and pale elves from the White that Wends sound faintly Norse (Ydwin, Vatnir).

The list includes the companions and major figures players meet in Dawnshore and beyond, original names from each of those cultures, a few titled names such as Ser, Inquisitor and Envoy, and epithets for godlike envoys marked by the strange growths that set the protagonist apart.

To make a name feel native to Eora, pick one culture and stay inside it: an Aedyran first name with a Vailian mes-surname reads as a mixed heritage, which is fine if that is the story, and jarring if it is not.

How to choose Avowed names

  • Decide your Envoy's home culture first (Aedyran, Vailian, Rauataian, Glanfathan) and choose a name from that culture; the sound of the name tells other characters where you are from before you speak.
  • Godlike are usually raised by ordinary families, so a godlike Envoy should carry a normal cultural name; add an epithet like Spore-Crowned or Lichenbright only as a nickname the Living Lands gives you.
  • Use mes or di for Vailian characters of standing (Ottavio mes Caldera) and plain surnames for commoners; in Aedyr the reverse holds, and titles such as Ser or Inquisitor do the work.
  • For aumaua and pale elf names, keep the macrons and double vowels when you can; Kōtare and Hvitfell look right on the screen and signal the culture at a glance.
  • Orlan and dwarf names tend to be short and blunt (Teshek, Hosten, Tulok), so resist stretching them into three-syllable elf names.

Frequently asked questions

Is Avowed set in the same world as Pillars of Eternity?

Yes. Avowed is set on Eora, in the Living Lands, about a decade after the events of Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire. The cultures, gods, races and naming conventions are shared, which is why Aedyran, Vailian, Huana and Glanfathan names all fit.

What are the companions called in Avowed?

Your four companions are Kai, an aumaua fighter; Giatta, a Vailian animancer; Marius, a wood elf ranger; and Yatzli, an orlan wizard. Their names are good models for the cultures they come from.

What kind of name should a godlike Envoy have?

Godlike are born to regular parents and named by their culture, so use an ordinary Aedyran, Vailian or other cultural name. The fungal and plant-like growths of Avowed's Envoy inspire nicknames, which is where epithets like Moss-Crowned or Sporewake come in.

Can I use these names for a Pillars of Eternity or tabletop character instead?

Absolutely. Every name here follows Eora's cultural rules, so they work for a Watcher in Pillars of Eternity, a captain in Deadfire, or any fantasy setting that wants distinct Anglo-Saxon, Italianate, Celtic, Polynesian or Norse-flavored cultures.
