Dragon Ball Saiyan Name Generator
Vegetable-pun warrior names from Planet Vegeta to Universe 6
Generate Saiyan names that follow the Dragon Ball rule of hidden vegetable puns: canon warriors like Kakarot, Bardock, Caulifla and Cabba plus hundreds of original Saiyan names for male, female, elite and low-class OCs.
About Dragon Ball Saiyan names
Every Saiyan in Dragon Ball is named after a vegetable, and Akira Toriyama disguised the pun so most viewers never notice. Kakarot is carrot, Vegeta is vegetable, Raditz is radish, Nappa is a Japanese word for leafy greens, Bardock is burdock, Gine comes from negi (spring onion), Broly is broccoli, Paragus is asparagus, Tarble is vegetable with the front cut off, and Turles is lettuce with its letters scrambled. Universe 6 Saiyans keep the theme: Cabba (cabbage), Caulifla (cauliflower), Kale and Renso (from horenso, spinach).
A good original Saiyan name starts with an unused vegetable, herb or legume, then twists it until it sounds like a warrior. Drop a syllable (Parsnak from parsnip), swap a vowel (Endiva from endive), reverse it (Turles), or borrow the Japanese word (Nasu for eggplant, Daikon, Kabocha, Gobo). Two or three syllables is the canon norm, since Saiyans bark their names in battle. There are no surnames, though royals take a title (King Vegeta, Prince Vegeta) and half-Saiyans raised on Earth get Earth-style names like Gohan and Trunks.
The list below blends canon Saiyans with hundreds of original vegetable-pun names: rougher options for low-class warriors, softer forms for female and Universe 6 Saiyans, plus Latin botanical names, crop words from other languages, spices, grains and reshuffled syllables, a few longer than the canon norm.
How to choose Dragon Ball Saiyan names
- Start with an unused vegetable, herb or legume, then mangle it: reverse it, cut a syllable, or swap a vowel until it sounds like a name rather than a grocery item (Salsify becomes Salsifa, Kohlrabi becomes Kohlrab).
- Female Saiyans in canon (Gine, Fasha, Caulifla, Kale) end in soft vowels or -a, so adding -a, -ina or -ette to a vegetable stem gives an instantly female-sounding name.
- Use Japanese vegetable words for a deeper cut: Nasu (eggplant), Daikon, Kabocha (squash), Gobo (burdock), Negi (leek) all follow Toriyama's own habit with Nappa and Gine.
- Match rank to sound: harsh consonant clusters (Bardock, Raditz, Broly) suit low-class fighters and elites like Nappa, while royalty in canon uses the plainest pun of all, Vegeta.
- Skip surnames; Saiyans have none. If a character is half-Saiyan raised on Earth, an Earth-style pun (Trunks, Gohan, Pan) is more authentic than a vegetable name.
Frequently asked questions
What vegetables are the main Saiyans named after?
Kakarot is carrot, Vegeta is vegetable, Raditz is radish, Nappa is leafy greens (nappa cabbage), Bardock is burdock, Gine is spring onion (negi), Broly is broccoli, Paragus is asparagus, Turles is lettuce scrambled, Cabba is cabbage, Caulifla is cauliflower and Kale is kale.
Do Saiyans have last names?
No. Saiyans go by a single vegetable-pun name; royalty adds a title (King Vegeta, Prince Vegeta) and Earth-raised half-Saiyans like Gohan, Goten, Trunks and Pan use Earth-style pun names instead. Goku's Earth surname Son comes from Journey to the West rather than Saiyan tradition.
How do I name a female Saiyan OC?
Follow the same vegetable rule but end on a soft vowel: Gine, Fasha, Caulifla and Kale all do. Endiva, Celeria, Radisha, Kalette or Zucchina sound like they belong on Planet Vegeta or in Universe 6.
Can I use these Saiyan names for a Xenoverse character or fan fiction?
Yes. Original pun names are free to use for OCs, fan fiction, roleplay and custom fighters in Xenoverse, FighterZ or Sparking Zero. Canon names and Dragon Ball itself belong to Akira Toriyama, Shueisha and Toei Animation.
