Velaryon Name Generator
Names for the Lords of the Tides and Driftmark
Generate House Velaryon names from House of the Dragon and Fire & Blood: canon lords like Corlys, Laenor and Vaemond, Valyrian-style originals, bastards of Hull and Driftmark, epithets, and ships fit for the Sea Snake's fleet.
About Velaryon names
House Velaryon is the other great Valyrian family of Westeros, older in the realm than the Targaryens and tied to the sea rather than the sky. Their names use the same Old Valyrian sound palette as their cousins, long vowel pairs such as ae and ai, endings in -ys, -or, -on and -mond, but with a slightly harder, saltier edge: Corlys, Laenor, Vaemond, Daemon, Malentine, Rhogar, Monford. Women take the soft -a and -ys endings of Laena, Daenaera, Valaena and Alyssa. Because the two houses intermarried for generations, Targaryen favorites like Jacaerys, Lucerys and Rhaenys show up on Velaryon family trees too.
The house also has a rich tradition of lowborn and bastard names. Velaryon bastards from the Crownlands carry the surname Waters (Aurane Waters), while shipwrights and sailors of the port towns are known by place alone: Addam of Hull, Alyn of Hull, Marilda of Hull. Lords earn epithets from the sea, most famously Corlys the Sea Snake and Alyn Oakenfist, and their ships (Sea Snake, Ice Wolf, Summer Maid, Lady Baela) are named like members of the family.
The list mixes canon Velaryons with originals built on these patterns, so you can name a Lord of the Tides, a Driftmark bastard, or a new galley for the fleet.
How to choose Velaryon names
- Keep the Valyrian vowel pairs (ae, ai, ey) for trueborn Velaryons but give them a maritime epithet rather than a draconic one: Tidecaller, Oakenfist, Swiftkeel, not Dragonbane.
- For bastards and sailors, use a plain Westerosi first name plus 'Waters' or 'of Hull'; this is how Addam and Alyn were known before Corlys legitimized them.
- Reuse family names down the generations the way the books do (Corlys, Daemon, Laena, Alyn all recur); an heir named for the Sea Snake instantly signals lineage.
- Ship names should sound like something a Velaryon would say with pride: a beloved relative (Lady Baela, Queen Rhaenys), a sea creature, or a boast about far voyages.
- If you are writing a Velaryon who married into House Targaryen, remember children usually take the father's surname, so Rhaenys's children are Velaryons and Baela's would be too.
Frequently asked questions
Who are the canon members of House Velaryon?
The best known are Corlys the Sea Snake, his wife Rhaenys Targaryen, their children Laenor and Laena, his brother Vaemond, the Hull-born Addam and Alyn, Rhaenyra's sons Jacaerys, Lucerys and Joffrey, and later lords such as Daemon, Aethan, Corwyn, Malentine, Monford and the bastard Aurane Waters.
What is the difference between 'Waters' and 'of Hull'?
Waters is the formal bastard surname of the Crownlands, used for acknowledged noble bastards like Aurane Waters. 'Of Hull' simply means someone from the Driftmark port of Hull, the way Addam and Alyn were named before Corlys claimed them as kin.
Why do Velaryon names sound like Targaryen names?
Both houses came from Old Valyria and spoke High Valyrian, so they share the ae/ys/on sound system. Velaryons tend toward sea-linked epithets and a few distinctive names (Corlys, Vaemond, Malentine) that Targaryens never use.
Can I use these names for fan fiction or a roleplay character?
Yes. The original names are free to use. Canon characters, House Velaryon and the seahorse sigil belong to George R. R. Martin and HBO, so keep them to fan works rather than commercial projects.
