Dragon's Dogma Name Generator

Mostly old English, Welsh and light medieval French names, because Gransys and Vermund are modelled on medieval Britain. Canon examples are Savan, Edmun Dragonsbane, Aelinore, Mercedes Marten, Julien, Ulrika, Brant and Doireann. Dragon's Dogma 2 adds Battahl, whose beastren and Regentkin characters have Arabic- and Persian-sounding names such as Nadinia, Menella and Phaesus, plus Welsh elves and Norse dwarves.

Something short and memorable, since other Arisen will browse your pawn in the Rift and hire it by name. Single words such as Kestrel, Thorn, Rime or Wren, clipped period names like Osric, Tegwen or Bram, or a name-plus-vocation epithet like Fenwick the Mage all work. Many players also give the pawn a name that pairs with their Arisen's, for example a knight called Roland Vessic with a pawn called Sable Wyck.

No. The player names the Arisen in both games, so there is no official name, though Savan, the hero of the prologue in the first Dragon's Dogma, is often used as a stand-in. Dragon's Dogma 2 refers to the player simply as the Arisen and to the pretender on the throne as Sovran Sven, so any name in a medieval English, Welsh or Battahli style fits the dialogue.

You can, and names like Mercedes, Julien, Ulrika or Glyndwr fit naturally, but avoid dragons and bosses such as Grigori, Daimon or the Ur-Dragon for a player character. The original names in this list are free to use for your Arisen, pawns, fan fiction or a tabletop game set in Gransys or Vermund.
