Quirk Name Generator

In My Hero Academia, a Quirk name is short, blunt, and descriptive. Canon Quirks are usually one or two plain words that state exactly what the power does: Explosion, Hardening, Zero Gravity, Half-Cold Half-Hot. Some describe the body part involved (Earphone Jack, Tail, Dupli-Arms), some describe an effect (Decay, Erasure, Permeation), and a few are named after the material or animal they draw on (Cement, Frog, Mushroom). Flashy poetic names are the exception, not the rule, which is part of why the world feels grounded.

A good original Quirk name follows the same logic. Pick the mechanic first, then name it the way a doctor or a Quirk registry form would: what does it do, what limits it, what does it cost the user? A Quirk called Static Cling immediately suggests both a power (sticking to surfaces) and a weakness (needing to build charge). Then think about how the Quirk shapes a hero name, since heroes like Shoto, Uravity, and Chargebolt all riff on their Quirk.

The list here mixes canon Quirks with original ones written to feel like they belong in the same registry, so you can grab an established power for a roleplay or an unused one for a fresh OC.
