Sith Name Generator

Sith names in Star Wars come in two layers. A Sith Lord's title is Darth followed by a chosen name that replaces their birth identity: Anakin Skywalker became Darth Vader, Sheev Palpatine became Darth Sidious, Dooku became Darth Tyranus. Most Darth names are built from Latin or English roots twisted into something ominous. Sidious echoes insidious, Tyranus is tyrant, Plagueis is plague, Nihilus is nihil (nothing), Vader is a clipped invader, Maul is simply a blunt weapon, and Bane, Ruin, and Traya (betrayer) work the same way. Legends and The Old Republic add harsher invented forms like Malgus, Vowrawn, and Thanaton that keep the same growl.

Before the Darth convention existed, ancient Sith Lords used personal names in the old Sith style: Naga Sadow, Marka Ragnos, Ludo Kressh, Ajunta Pall, Exar Kun. These are short two-part names with hard consonants and are the right model for characters from the Old Republic era, Sith Purebloods, or a Sith who has not yet earned a Darth title. In SWTOR, mid-rank Sith use Lord or Lady before a name instead.

The strongest Sith names are one to three syllables, easy to spit with contempt, and hint at the flaw or ambition that defines the character. This list mixes canon and Legends names with original Darth titles built from the same Latin and dread-word roots so you can pick a recognizable name or an unused one for an OC.
