About Skyrim Imperial names

Imperials are the people of Cyrodiil, and Bethesda built their names on Latin. Given names follow Roman forms (Titus, Marcus, Gaius, Quintus, Severus for men; Vittoria, Adrianne, Camilla, Livia, Tullia for women), and family names are either Latin-sounding (Mede, Tharn, Draconis, Aquilarios, Valerius) or carry the Italianate double-consonant ring of Skyrim's Imperial NPCs: Avenicci, Vendicci, Vici, Tituleius, Pelagia. Lore divides the province into the Colovian west, where names stay plain and martial, and the Nibenese east, where names grow longer and more ornate, so a Legion quartermaster from Chorrol and a Nibenay silk merchant should not sound alike.

This list mixes canonical characters from Skyrim, Oblivion and the Elder Scrolls novels and ESO with original names built the same way from Latin roots and endings, so the invented entries sit comfortably beside the canonical ones. Most entries are full first and family names; a few single-name rogues like Cicero, Vex and Rune reflect how Imperials in the Thieves Guild and Dark Brotherhood tend to present themselves. Use them for a Legion-loyal Dragonborn, a Companions recruit, an ESO Daggerfall Covenant alt, or an NPC in a tabletop campaign set in Tamriel.

How to choose Skyrim Imperial names

  • Decide Colovian or Nibenese. A Colovian soldier suits a short, blunt name like Marcus Varro or Titus Vale; a Nibenese mage or noble can carry something like Constantius Tituleius or Adelaisa Vendicci.
  • Legion characters are usually addressed by rank and surname (Legate Rikke, Captain Aldis, General Tullius), so pick a family name that sounds good after a title and is easy to bark across a battlefield.
  • Thieves, assassins and Bards College types often drop the surname entirely. A single name like Vex or Rune reads as someone who has left their family behind.
  • Avoid a surname that already belongs to a major house unless you mean it. A character named Mede or Tharn will be assumed to have ties to the Emperor or the Elder Council.
  • Keep the ending consistent with gender: -us, -ius and -o for men, -a and -ia for women. Skyrim's own NPC lists follow this almost without exception.

Frequently asked questions

What do Imperial names sound like in The Elder Scrolls?

They are modelled on ancient Rome. Men are usually Titus, Lucius, Quintus or Severio; women are Vittoria, Camilla, Adrianne or Cassia; and surnames range from Latin forms like Draconis and Aquilarios to Italianate ones like Avenicci and Vici.

Are these names from Skyrim itself or made up?

Both. The list includes canonical Imperials such as Titus Mede, Vittoria Vici, Adrianne Avenicci, Gaius Maro and Quentin Cipius, alongside many original names built with the same Latin roots and endings so they fit beside the real ones.

What is the difference between Colovian and Nibenese names?

Colovians from western Cyrodiil favour short, practical, soldierly names; the Nibenese from the east use longer, grander names befitting their merchant and mage culture. Both share the Latin base, so the difference is mostly length and ornamentation.

Can I use these names in Elder Scrolls Online?

Yes. ESO lets Imperials join any alliance, and these names match the Cyrodiilic style used by ESO characters like Varen Aquilarios and Abnur Tharn. Check availability in the character creator, since popular canonical names are often taken.
