Loxodon Name Generator

Loxodon are the elephant folk of Ravnica, introduced to Dungeons & Dragons in the Guildmaster's Guide to Ravnica and long familiar to Magic: The Gathering players through cards like Loxodon Hierarch. Their names have a distinctive sound: long, rounded vowels (oo, u, o) paired with soft consonants like j, zh, and v, giving names such as Chedumov, Ilromov, Droozh, and Katrunya. The official examples lean on Slavic-flavored endings (-ov, -un, -uk) for masculine names and softer -a, -ya, and -ooj endings for feminine ones, though loxodon are not strict about gendered naming.

The sound is meant to match the people. Loxodon are slow to anger, deeply loyal, and famously long-lived and long-remembering, so a good loxodon name should feel weighty and unhurried when spoken aloud. Short, sharp names sound wrong in a loxodon's mouth; three-syllable names with a low, resonant vowel in the middle sound right.

Most loxodon in Ravnica belong to the Selesnya Conclave, with a fair number in the Boros Legion and the Orzhov Syndicate, so titles like Elder, Hierarch, Warden, or Sergeant sit naturally in front of a personal name. Outside Ravnica, these names work just as well for elephant folk clerics, monks, and stone-carvers in any homebrew world.
