Iron Hands Name Generator
Hard Medusan names for the sons of Ferrus Manus
Generate Iron Hands names for Warhammer 40,000: clipped Medusan Space Marine names like Vorrek Stahlaan and Kaarvax, Iron Fathers and Iron Captains, battle-brothers named by clan company such as Draakul of Clan Garrsak, and epithets like Vessrak Steelhand.
About Iron Hands names
The Iron Hands are the sons of Ferrus Manus, a First Founding chapter of Warhammer 40,000 raised on the harsh, tectonically restless world of Medusa. Their creed is that the flesh is weak, and their names sound as if they were machined: Kardan Stronos, Gabriel Santar, Shadrak Meduson, Arven Rauth, Verrox, Jalenghaal. Given names are often old and severe, and the Medusan names around them are hard and clipped, with doubled vowels and heavy consonants.
Clans matter because the chapter is built on them. Each company is a clan company with a Medusan name: Avernii, Garrsak, Raukaan, Kaargul, Haarmek, Sorrgol, Borrgos, Morlaag, Vurgaan and Dorrvok. A battle-brother is known by his clan as readily as by his rank, so part of this list is written that way, as in Draakul of Clan Garrsak. The chapter's own titles are here too: Iron Fathers, who join the duties of Techmarine and Chaplain and sit on the Iron Council, and Iron Captains, who command the clan companies.
The rest is two-part names such as Vorrek Stahlaan, single names like Kaarvax, the standard ranks from Scout to Librarian, and epithets drawn from bionics, the forge and Medusa itself. A handful of well-known characters are mixed in; everything else is invented in the same style and is not presented as canon.
How to choose Iron Hands names
- Choose the clan company before the name. Clan Avernii is the veteran company and Clan Dorrvok trains the scouts, so a clan tells an opponent what kind of warrior the model is before the rank does.
- Give a force one Iron Father and let him be the oldest voice in it. Iron Captain is the company commander's title, so a single army rarely needs more than one of each.
- Let the epithet show how much of the warrior is still flesh. Steelhand or Half-Iron suits a line brother; the Remade or the Fleshless suits a veteran who has replaced most of himself.
- Single names read as old and distant, in the manner of Verrox. Two-part names such as Hadrik Voldos or Zadok Stennos read as younger brothers who still carry a birth name from the clans.
- The same style works for successor chapters such as the Brazen Claws, the Red Talons and the Sons of Medusa. Drop the clan attribution and keep the hard Medusan sound.
Frequently asked questions
What do Iron Hands names sound like?
Hard and clipped, with doubled vowels and heavy consonants: Stronos, Rauth, Jalenghaal, and clan names such as Kaargul and Raukaan. Many battle-brothers pair that sound with an old, severe given name, as Gabriel Santar and Shadrak Meduson do. In this list you will find both kinds, from Tholl Garrsen and Kaarvax to Abdiel Korrund and Gideon Haarn.
What is an Iron Father?
An Iron Father is a senior Iron Hand who combines the work of a Techmarine with the spiritual duties other chapters give to Chaplains. The Iron Fathers sit together on the Iron Council, which governs the chapter. The list has two dozen of them, such as Iron Father Thellax and Iron Father Kolvaar Thresk.
What are the Iron Hands clan companies?
The chapter's ten companies are clan companies named for the clans of Medusa: Avernii, Garrsak, Raukaan, Kaargul, Haarmek, Sorrgol, Borrgos, Morlaag, Vurgaan and Dorrvok. Each one appears here with battle-brothers attached, for example Staalgrim of Clan Raukaan and Sergeant Uldaar, Clan Sorrgol.
Are the Iron Hands the same as the Iron Warriors?
No. The Iron Hands are the loyal Tenth Legion of Ferrus Manus, while the Iron Warriors are a separate Legion of siege specialists under Perturabo who turned traitor. Their naming styles differ as well, and the Iron Warriors have their own generator on this site.
