Jem'Hadar Name Generator
Two-part Dominion soldier names, some with ranks
Get Jem'Hadar names for Star Trek characters, from canon soldiers like Omet'iklan and Remata'Klan to original names on the same two-part pattern, such as Pralek'aklan and First Hovak'arika.
About Jem'Hadar names
The Jem'Hadar are the soldiers of the Dominion in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, bred by the Founders, commanded by the Vorta and kept loyal through their dependence on ketracel-white. They are grown in hatcheries rather than born, reach fighting age within days and have no families, which is why a Jem'Hadar carries one name and nothing else. So there are no surnames here, no female names and no Vorta or Founder names.
On screen those names follow one clear pattern: two elements joined by an apostrophe, a short hard opening and a longer close, as in Omet'iklan, Remata'Klan, Ikat'ika, Goran'Agar and Toman'torax. The series named only about twenty Jem'Hadar, so this list mixes those canon names with original names built on the same pattern. The originals vary both halves widely, with closes in -klan, -ika, -agar, -ax, -ara and -an beside blunter endings, and the letter after the apostrophe is sometimes a capital and sometimes not, as in the show's own spellings.
A share of the names carry a rank. Jem'Hadar units number their soldiers, so the First leads, the Second and Third follow in order, and a soldier who survives to twenty is called an Honored Elder. Use a ranked form for a unit leader or a veteran and a bare name for everyone else.
How to choose Jem'Hadar names
- Keep the apostrophe and say the name as two beats: a clipped first element and a longer second one. Talak'talan and Virak'kara show the rhythm.
- Hand out ranks by unit, not by taste. One First, one Second and one Third per squad keeps the chain of command readable when the First falls and everyone moves up.
- Save Honored Elder for a rare veteran. A Jem'Hadar who reaches twenty is exceptional, so one in a story is plenty.
- When you name a whole unit, pick different endings so players can tell the soldiers apart at the table: one in -klan, one in -ax, one in -ara.
- If your story needs a Vorta overseer or a Founder, name them elsewhere. Vorta names such as Weyoun and Keevan follow different rules and are not part of this list.
Frequently asked questions
Which of these Jem'Hadar names are canon?
Names such as Omet'iklan, Toman'torax, Virak'kara, Goran'Agar, Arak'Taral, Remata'Klan, Limara'Son, Ikat'ika and Talak'talan come from Deep Space Nine episodes, and the series named only about twenty Jem'Hadar in all. The rest, including Pralek'aklan, Tekron'Vetrix and Honored Elder Koret'urax, are original names in the same style. Treat any name you do not recognize from the show as original.
How are Jem'Hadar names structured?
A Jem'Hadar name is two elements joined by an apostrophe, with no surname. The first element is short and hard, like Omet or Virak, and the second often ends in -klan, -ika, -agar, -an, -ax or -ara. The letter after the apostrophe is sometimes capitalized and sometimes not, as in Remata'Klan and Omet'iklan.
What do First, Second and Third mean in front of a name?
They are ranks. Each Jem'Hadar unit numbers its soldiers: the First commands under the unit's Vorta, and when he dies the Second takes his place. Honored Elder marks a soldier who has lived to twenty, which few do.
Why are there no female Jem'Hadar names?
The Jem'Hadar are engineered and grown in hatcheries, and every one seen in Star Trek is male. The list keeps to that. It also leaves out Vorta and Founder names, which work differently.
