Random Tiefling Name Generator
Infernal, virtue and human-style names for D&D tieflings
Generate random tiefling names that follow the D&D 5e conventions: Infernal given names like Damakos and Bryseis, virtue names like Temerity and Reverence, and full names with surnames for Baldur's Gate 3 and tabletop campaigns.
About random tiefling names
Tiefling names in Dungeons & Dragons come in three flavors, and the Player's Handbook lays them out clearly. Many tieflings carry Infernal names passed down through their fiendish bloodline: male names like Akmenos, Damakos, Kairon and Morthos, and female names like Bryseis, Kallista, Nemeia and Rieta. These are heavy on k, th and long vowels, and sound like something whispered in a contract with a devil.
The second tradition is the virtue name. Some tieflings, especially those raised among humans, take a name that reflects an ideal or a burden they have chosen to carry: Temerity, Reverence, Poetry, Sorrow, Creed, Nowhere. Baldur's Gate 3 characters like Karlach, Zevlor, Rolan and Alfira show the third option, an ordinary-sounding name from the human culture the tiefling grew up in, sometimes paired with a surname such as Tealeaf or Lavorre.
When picking one, think about how your character relates to their heritage. An Infernal name suggests pride or a family that kept the old ways; a virtue name suggests a deliberate identity; a human name suggests someone trying to blend in. Mixing them, such as Bryseis Ashfall or Skamos Vale, gives you an instantly playable full name. The list also holds epithet names (Parvech the Quiet), short street names (Brask), chosen-word names (Inkwell) and two-word phrases (Last Light).
How to choose random tiefling names
- Match the naming style to the backstory: Infernal names for tieflings proud of their lineage, virtue names for those who chose their own path.
- Virtue names don't have to be positive; Sorrow, Torment and Weary are canon examples, and an ironic virtue name is a classic tiefling character hook.
- For a full name, pair an Infernal given name with a human-sounding surname (Damakos Vessyr) so NPCs can pronounce at least half of it.
- Female Infernal names in 5e usually end in -a, -is or -eia (Damaia, Bryseis, Nemeia); male names favor -os, -on and -ech.
- Check that the name doesn't clash with your table's other characters; a party with both a Karlach and a Kallista gets confusing fast.
Frequently asked questions
What are the official tiefling names in D&D 5e?
The Player's Handbook lists male Infernal names (Akmenos, Amnon, Barakas, Damakos, Ekemon, Iados, Kairon, Leucis, Melech, Mordai, Morthos, Pelaios, Skamos, Therai), female Infernal names (Akta, Anakis, Bryseis, Criella, Damaia, Ea, Kallista, Lerissa, Makaria, Nemeia, Orianna, Phelaia, Rieta) and virtue names such as Art, Carrion, Creed, Glory, Hope, Poetry, Reverence, Sorrow and Temerity. All of them are included here.
Do tieflings have last names?
Not by Infernal tradition, but many adopt one from the human culture they grew up in, and Baldur's Gate 3 and Critical Role characters like Mollymauk Tealeaf show how well that works. A surname is optional and usually says more about where the tiefling was raised than about their bloodline.
What is a tiefling virtue name?
A virtue name is a word for an ideal, emotion or concept that a tiefling takes as their personal name, often to signal a break with their fiendish heritage. Canon examples include Hope, Quest, Random, Reverence and Torment; the name is meant to be aspirational, ironic or both.
Can I use these tiefling names in my own game or story?
Yes. The naming conventions and the original names here are free to use; a handful of famous character names from Baldur's Gate 3 and Critical Role are included for reference and are best treated as inspiration rather than lifted for commercial work.
