GW2 Human Name Generator

Humans in Guild Wars 2 are the survivors of a fallen empire, and their names reflect where their families fled from. Krytans, centered on Divinity's Reach, use names with a late-medieval European ring: Logan Thackeray, Jennah, Faren, Anise, Caudecus. Ascalonian refugees in Ebonhawke carry sturdier Germanic and Norse-tinged names like Forgal Kernsson and Deborah Ashford. Elonians from Amnoon and the Crystal Desert use Arabic and North African forms with the al' particle (Sayeh al'Rajihd, Zalambur al'Din), and Canthans from Kaineng City use Chinese, Korean and Japanese-inspired names such as Sun Joon, Kwan Yao and Mai Trin.

Structurally, GW2 human names are usually a given name plus a family name, sometimes preceded by a title (Countess, Minister, Captain, Spearmarshal). Family names in Kryta tend to be English-sounding surnames (Meade, Delaqua, Ashford, Whiting) rather than the fantasy compound words the norn favor. Nobles of Divinity's Reach often go by title and given name alone, as with Lord Faren and Lady Wi.

A good GW2 human name signals your character's homeland at a glance and fits the 19-character limit including spaces. Pick a region, choose a given name in that style, and finish with a family name or title. A Krytan guardian might be Cedric Vane; an Elonian ranger, Farida Idris; a Canthan mesmer, Ling Fei.
