Sisters Of Battle Name Generator

Adepta Sororitas names sound like they were lifted from a martyrology. Games Workshop's named characters set the pattern: Saint Celestine, Canoness Veridyan, Abbess Sanctorum Morvenn Vahl, Palatine Junith Eruita, Ephrael Stern, and the novel heroines Sister Miriya and Sister Verity. Given names are overwhelmingly Latin, Greek or medieval saint names (Aurelia, Perpetua, Hildegard, Theodora), while surnames lean Gothic and clipped: Vahl, Stern, Eruita, Thorne, Kantor. A few Sisters carry no surname at all, only a rank or a title earned in battle.

Rank comes first and tells you everything about the character's place in the Order. Novice and Battle Sister form the rank and file; Sister Superior leads a squad; Celestians are veterans, Seraphim and Zephyrim the jump-pack elite; Dominions, Retributors and Sacresants define the special-weapon and bodyguard squads. Above them stand Palatine, Canoness, Canoness Superior and ultimately the Abbess Sanctorum. Non-militant Orders add Hospitaller, Dialogus, Dogmata and Imagifier, while Repentia and the Mistress of Repentance carry names weighted with penance.

The list below mixes canon characters, rank-plus-name combinations for every unit type, and bare full names you can slot under any title. Pick a rank, then a given name that sounds like it belongs on a reliquary, and the character will feel at home in any Order, from the Bloody Rose to the Sacred Rose.
