Generate Mistborn-style names for Scadrial: new noble houses like Morivane and Marchenoir, skaa and crew names like Bren and Soot, Terris names like Hadwyl, kandra names like SulDaan, and Era 2 names like Hallister Brannow and Tobin Sixshots.

About Mistborn names

Names on Scadrial tell you where someone stands. In the Final Empire the nobility carry house names with a French tint (Venture, Elariel, Lekal), while skaa get by on one short name and thieving crews on nicknames (Vin, Ham, Breeze, Spook). Terris names are soft, full of w and d sounds (Sazed, Tindwyl), and kandra use two syllables with a capital inside (TenSoon, MeLaan). Three centuries later the Era 2 books trade all of it for a frontier ring: Waxillium Ladrian, Marasi Colms, Miles Hundredlives.

This list is original names in those patterns. The names above are the models and are left out of it, and nothing here is official. Instead of new relatives for the great houses it offers new houses (House Valtrieu, Marchenoir, Rochevane) and nobles to fill them (Elisane Morivane, Lord Astrin Vaudrelle). Skaa names stay short (Bren, Dessa), crew nicknames stay sooty (Cinder, Latchkey, Old Tin), and the Steel Ministry gets its obligators and Inquisitors (Prelan Dessec, Inquisitor Vel).

The books name few Terris and very few koloss, so those sets are invented on the pattern of the handful that exist, as are the kandra (SulDaan, HarVeen). Era 2 closes the list: Elendel society and its constables (Hallister Brannow, Constable Brix Tolland) and Roughs folk with fused epithets (Tobin Sixshots, Ruby Nightride).

How to choose Mistborn names

  • Pick the era first. Luthadel under the Lord Ruler wants a house name or a one-word skaa name; Elendel and the Roughs want a first name and a surname, or an epithet.
  • Let class show in the form. A noble uses the full name (Kelric Estrivaux), a crew member a nickname (Soot, Pockets), sometimes with a Misting trade attached, as in Squint the Tineye.
  • Keep a kandra to two syllables with the capital in the middle, and add a generation for an elder, as in GenKaal of the Fourth Generation.
  • Fuse a Roughs epithet into one word and let it hint at a story nobody tells straight: Garth Emptyholster, Kip Latewagon, Petey Neverhang.
  • For a noble of your own, take one of the new house names and put your own given name in front of it. That keeps your character out of the family trees the books have already drawn.

Frequently asked questions

Are these names from the Mistborn books?

No. The list is original names written in the patterns of the books, and the page is not official or endorsed by the author or publisher. Names from the books, such as Vin and TenSoon, appear only in the guide as models of each style.

How do kandra names work?

A kandra name in the books is two syllables with the second one capitalized, as in TenSoon and MeLaan. The list follows that with names such as SulDaan, KesTaal and BriNoor, and gives a few a generation, as in HuuMeer of the Fifth Generation.

What do koloss names look like?

The books name very few koloss, and the best known is simply called Human. The koloss set here is invented on that pattern: plain words a koloss might claim for itself, such as Person, Bigger, Iron Wants and Still-Growing.

How is this different from the Cosmere name generator?

The Cosmere page spreads its names across every world in that universe. This one stays on Scadrial and gives each group its own set, from noble houses and skaa crews to Terris, kandra, koloss, the Steel Ministry, Elendel and the Roughs. It is a different list, with no names repeated from that page.
