Sullustan Name Generator

Sullustans are the jowled, big-eared navigators from the volcanic world of Sullust, best known through Nien Nunb, Lando's copilot at Endor, and B-wing pilot Ten Numb. Their names follow a very recognizable pattern: a given name of one syllable or two (Nien, Ten, Aril, Sian, Syub) and a surname of one syllable (Nunb, Numb, Tevv, Snunb, Nep). Almost nothing runs longer than four or five letters per part, which is why a Sullustan name on a squadron roster reads like a short burst of static next to a human one.

The sound comes from Sullustese, a chirping, buzzing language that Basic speakers find hard to reproduce. Doubled consonants (Tevv, Nunb, Snunb), the long vowel clusters uu, ii and ee, and unusual clusters like Dllr or Snb at the start or end of a word are the tells. Nasal sounds (n, m) and soft stops (b, d) dominate; hard k and g sounds are rare, and x, z and harsh sibilants almost never appear. Names that obey those rules will sit naturally alongside canon even if they are invented.

This list mixes the handful of canon Sullustans with several hundred original names built on the same phonetics, so you can fill out a Rebel starfighter wing, a SoroSuub engineering crew, or a cave-city delegation for your campaign or story.
