Evil Paladin Name Generator

An evil paladin is still a paladin, and the name should say so. The strongest evil paladin names keep the formal, knightly frame of a holy warrior (Sir, Dame, Lord, a saint's name, a heraldic surname) and then corrupt one element: Sir Gideon Oathrend, Dame Isolde Blackvow, Brother Malachai Thorne. That contrast is what makes a blackguard, Oathbreaker or death knight feel like someone who fell rather than someone who was always a monster. A name like Grendak Cruelhand reads as a warlord; Sir Benedict Falsevow reads as a paladin who broke.

There are three reliable shapes. Old-world given names (Aldous, Ysolde, Anselm, Rohesia, Ludovic) with a dark compound surname (Gravemarch, Bitterhelm, Coldchapel). An epithet that names the sin: the Forsworn, the Apostate, the Twice-Damned, the Unrepentant, the Hanged Saint. Or a rank from a corrupted order: Knight-Tyrant, High Penitent, Blackguard Captain, Dread Templar. Religious vocabulary turned sour works especially well (Blackpenance, Coldprayer, Lastrite, Brokenhalo), because paladins are defined by faith.

This list mixes English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Slavic and Norse-flavoured names with invented fantasy ones, plus Puritan virtue names used ironically (Mercy Hollow, Patience Crowe), so you can match any campaign setting.
