Dragon Ball Name Generator

Almost every name in Dragon Ball is a pun, and each faction has its own theme. Saiyans are vegetables: Kakarot (carrot), Vegeta (vegetable), Raditz (radish), Nappa (Chinese cabbage), Broly (broccoli), Cabba (cabbage), Caulifla and Kale. Frieza's family is cold: Frieza (freezer), Cooler, King Cold, Frost, Chilled. The Ginyu Force is dairy: Ginyu (gyunyu, milk), Jeice (cheese), Burter (butter), Recoome (cream), Guldo (yogurt). Namekians are slugs and snails or musical instruments, the Briefs family is underwear (Bulma, Trunks, Bra), the Gods of Destruction and Angels are alcoholic drinks (Beerus, Whis, Champa, Vados), and Majin names come from the magic phrase Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo.

The list above mixes canonical characters with original names that follow the same rules, so a new Saiyan warrior might be Rutabaga, Kohlrabi or Cressa, a Frieza Force officer might be Glacia or Frigor, and a Namekian elder might be Escargo or Konch. Toriyama usually disguises the source word by clipping a syllable, swapping a letter or reversing sounds, which is why Kakarot reads as alien rather than as a grocery list.

When inventing your own, pick the faction first, then a food or object from its theme, then bend the spelling until it sounds like it belongs next to Nappa and Zarbon.
