About Vlandian names

Vlandia is Bannerlord's feudal kingdom of knights, crossbowmen and castles, modelled on the Normans and the early medieval Franks, and its names carry that sound. Canon Vlandian lords (Derthert, Ingalther, Belgir, Aldric, Gaston, Bryen, Ewgard) are built from Germanic name elements filtered through Old French: hard consonant starts, -ric, -bert, -ald and -wald endings, and two-syllable rhythm. Vlandian women (Liena, Orwen, Alary, Rayne) tend toward softer vowel endings, much like the Adelas, Mauds and Hawises of eleventh-century Normandy. Because the source material is real, genuine Norman, Frankish and Anglo-Norman names such as Odo, Fulk, Tancred, Rohese and Petronilla drop straight into Calradia without sounding borrowed.

A full Vlandian noble name adds the house particle dey, the game's version of the Norman de: Derthert dey Meroc, Ingalther dey Arromanc, Belgir dey Cortain. The list below pairs given names with canon houses and with new ones in the same shape, so your own clan can sit on the encyclopedia page beside dey Valant and dey Fortes without looking out of place. Wanderers and companions in Vlandia carry epithets rather than house names, so names like Osrac the Bold, Hugon Crossbow or Tamsin of Ocs Hall fit a mercenary or a sworn sword, while a landed lord is simply his given name and his house.

How to choose Vlandian names

  • For a noble character, use given name plus dey and a house name (Raimond dey Chalant). For a commoner or wanderer, drop the house and add an epithet instead (Raimond the Black).
  • Match the canon rhythm: two syllables, a hard start and a Germanic ending such as -ric, -bert, -wald or -win for men; -a, -e or -wen endings for women.
  • Name your heirs in the same style as the founder so the clan tree reads as one Vlandian line; a Sturgian -oving son of a dey house looks like a mistake.
  • Borrow freely from the Norman conquest and the Carolingian court. Names like Odo, Tancred, Herleva and Gisela are historically correct and already sound Vlandian.
  • If you create a new house, keep the house name one or two syllables and French-looking (dey Brevant, dey Tournes) rather than English or Latin.

Frequently asked questions

What culture are the Vlandians based on?

Vlandia draws on the Normans and the Frankish kingdoms of the early Middle Ages: heavy cavalry, crossbows, feudal vassals and stone keeps. Their towns (Pravend, Sargot, Ocs Hall, Galend, Charas, Jaculan) and their lords' names follow Old French and Germanic patterns, which is why Norman and Carolingian names fit them so well.

Who are the main Vlandian characters in Bannerlord?

King Derthert of clan dey Meroc rules Vlandia at the start of the campaign. Other notable nobles include Ingalther dey Arromanc, Belgir dey Cortain, Aldric dey Fortes, Gaston dey Valant, Bryen dey Gallen and Ewgard dey Molarn, along with Derthert's queen Liena.

What does dey mean in Vlandian names?

It is the house particle, the Calradian equivalent of the Norman de or d'. Every Vlandian noble clan is written as dey plus a house name, so a character named Gerbaud dey Brevant is Gerbaud of the house of Brevant. Commoners and wanderers do not use it.

Can I use these names for Warband's Swadians or Rhodoks?

Yes. Swadia and the Rhodoks are the successor realms of Vlandia centuries later, and their names (Harlaus, Graveth, Klargus) come from the same Frankish-Norman stock, so anything on this list works for a Warband character too.
