Generate Star Trek names for every major species: human Starfleet officers, Vulcans, Klingons, Romulans, Bajorans, Cardassians, Ferengi, Andorians, Trill, Betazoids, Orions and more. Canon favorites mixed with original names that follow each culture's rules.

About Star Trek names

Every Star Trek species has its own naming logic, and a name only sounds right when it follows that logic. Vulcan men take short S-k names (Sarek, Sorek) and women the T' prefix (T'Pol, T'Lana). Klingons use hard K, Q and gh sounds, often with an apostrophe and a patronymic, as in Durak, son of Lorgh. Romulan names are longer and smoother (Tomalak, Donatra, Velaren). Bajorans put the family name first, so Kira Nerys is Nerys of the Kira family. Cardassians lead with rank (Gul, Glinn, Legate), Ferengi keep to one blunt syllable or two (Quark, Brunt, Nunk), and Andorians carry a clan name marked sh', zh', ch' or th' for their four sexes.

Human Starfleet names are deliberately international, reflecting a united Earth: the crews mix Japanese, Nigerian, Russian, Indian, Irish and Brazilian surnames without comment, and a hyphenated name like Una Chin-Riley or La'an Noonien-Singh is perfectly normal. Trill joined hosts add the symbiont's name (Jadzia Dax, Lenara Kahn), and Orion, Betazoid and Denobulan names round out the Federation.

This list pairs well-known canon characters from every series with original names built on the same patterns, so you can pull a bridge crew, a Klingon house, or a DS9-style cast for Star Trek Adventures, Star Trek Online or your own fan fiction.

How to choose Star Trek names

Pick the species first, then the name. A Romulan called Kor'Tal or a Klingon called Sarek will pull a Trek-literate reader straight out of the story.
For Bajorans, remember the family name comes first: Shakaar Edon is addressed as Shakaar by strangers and Edon by friends. For Trill, the surname is the symbiont and changes with each host.
Klingon apostrophes usually sit after the first consonant (B'Elanna, K'Ehleyr) or inside a compound (Qo'vek); use at most one, and add 'son of' or 'daughter of' plus a father's name for formal introductions.
Give human officers grounded, international surnames and avoid sci-fi-sounding first names; Starfleet humans are named like people from 21st-century Earth, just from everywhere at once.
Canon names like Picard, Worf and Dax belong to their characters. Use them as reference points and choose original names from the same species for your own crew.

Frequently asked questions

Which Star Trek species does this generator include?

Humans from Starfleet, Vulcans, Klingons, Romulans, Bajorans, Cardassians, Ferengi, Andorians, Trill, Betazoids and Orions make up most of the list, with smaller sets for Tellarites, Bolians, Denobulans, Kelpiens, Benzites, Jem'Hadar, Vorta, Borg designations and other species from the Original Series through Discovery, Picard, Lower Decks and Strange New Worlds.

Can I use these names for Star Trek Online or Star Trek Adventures?

Yes. The original names follow the same conventions as the shows and are free to use for MMO captains, tabletop characters and fan fiction. Canon names such as Kirk, Janeway or Garak are Paramount's characters, so treat them as inspiration rather than names for your own creations.

How do I tell a Vulcan name from a Romulan one?

Vulcans and Romulans share ancestry, but Vulcan names are clipped and consonant-heavy (Sorek, T'Mir, Tuvok) while Romulan names run longer with open vowels and softer endings (Velaren, Tal'aura, Tebok). Many Romulan names also carry a hidden true name or the ancient t' and tr' house prefixes, which Vulcans no longer use.

Do Klingons have last names?

Not in the human sense. A Klingon is known by a given name plus a patronymic and house, such as Worf, son of Mogh, of the House of Martok. On this page, the single-word names are given names and the 'son of' forms show how a Klingon would introduce himself formally.
