About Tevinter names

The Tevinter Imperium is the old mage-ruled empire in the north of Thedas in Dragon Age, and its names lean on Latin and Greek without copying Rome. The series gives us Dorian Pavus, Gereon Alexius, Maevaris Tilani, Livia Herathinos and Neve Gallus: one given name and one family name, not the three-part Roman form. Some people are known by a single name, as Calpernia and Danarius are.

Class shapes a name. The altus are mages of the old bloodlines that claim descent from the ancient dreamers, and their house names are long and proud. Laetans are mages born to families without that lineage, and the soporati, the "sleepers", are citizens with no magic at all; both tend toward shorter, plainer names. Magister is the title of a member of the Magisterium, and the Archon rules above them. Slavery is part of the setting's lore, and freed people are called Liberati.

A small share of this list is characters from the series, kept as style anchors. The rest is fan-made: altus men and women grouped by house, titled magisters, enchanters and templars, commoners named for a city or a trade, Venatori cultists, single names, and a group of archaic names for the magisters of the ancient Imperium. None of the fan-made names should be read as lore.

How to choose Tevinter names

  • Pick the class before the name. An altus needs a house with some weight to it (Thessalane, Kyrenaios, Rhadamant); a soporati soldier or shopkeeper sounds right with something short like Dama Carbo or Hanno Pallo.
  • Use Magister only for a character with a seat in the Magisterium. A powerful mage without one is simply an altus or an enchanter, and the difference is a ready-made grudge.
  • Give siblings and cousins the same house name. The list has two members of many houses, such as Acastus and Calista Vessarian, so a family can be picked in one pass.
  • Avoid the full Roman three-part name. Tevinter characters in the series carry one given name and one family name, and a name borrowed whole from a history book breaks the feel of Thedas.
  • For a villain from the ancient Imperium, drop the family name and add an epithet. Koradius the Starwatcher or Melchadris the Twice-Crowned sounds older than any living house.

Frequently asked questions

What do Tevinter names sound like?

Latin and Greek in flavor, with endings such as -us, -ius, -a, -is and -os, but with invented family names. From this list, Leontius Tyrrhane, Zenaida Ixarion and Magister Sempronia Dalmatis follow the pattern set by Dorian Pavus and Livia Herathinos.

What is the difference between altus, laetan and soporati?

They are the classes of Tevinter citizens. Altus mages come from the old bloodlines, laetan mages come from families with no such lineage, and soporati have no magic. Entries such as Altus Renatus Valcarin and Laetan Mara Tessin carry the class as a label so the difference is easy to see.

Are these names from the Dragon Age games?

A small share are, including Dorian Pavus, Maevaris Tilani, Calpernia and Neve Gallus. The rest are fan-made in the same style, mostly real Latin and Greek given names with invented house names. Treat them as names for your own characters, not as lore.

Can I use these for a Rook or an Inquisition-era character?

Yes. A character from the streets of Minrathous suits a commoner name with a place or a faction, such as Celer of Dock Town or Brevia of the Shadow Dragons, while a mage of rank suits a full house name. The Venatori names fit antagonists in a story set during the Inquisition.
