Ozian Name Generator

An Ozian is any inhabitant of the Land of Oz, whether a Munchkin from the blue east, a Winkie from the yellow west, a Quadling from the red south, a Gillikin from the purple north or a citizen of the green Emerald City at the center. Baum used the word in the later books, and Gregory Maguire's Wicked uses it constantly, along with Ozianisms like Munchkinlander and Gillikinese.

Gregory Maguire built Elphaba from L. Frank Baum's initials (L-F-B), and Nessarose, Galinda, Fiyero, Boq and Avaric were invented to sound like an Ozian upper class. Glinda, Boq, Ozma, Mombi, Tip and Nessarose's country Munchkinland all trace back to Baum, while surnames like Thropp, Upland, Tigelaar and Tenmeadows are Maguire's additions.

No. The film gives us Dorothy Gale, Glinda, the Wicked Witches and a handful of others, but the fourteen Baum books and the later Famous Forty by Ruth Plumly Thompson and others supply hundreds more, and Wicked, The Wiz, Return to Oz, Oz the Great and Powerful, Emerald City and Dorothy Must Die each add their own. Original names here follow those same patterns.

Yes. Baum's Oz books are public domain, so their names are free to use anywhere, and the original names in this list are free as well. Characters created for Wicked and the modern films belong to their authors and studios, so treat those as inspiration for fan works rather than commercial projects.
