Vocaloid Name Generator

Vocaloid names come from a handful of clear conventions. The Crypton flagships hide their meaning in kanji: Hatsune Miku is 'first sound from the future', Kagamine is 'mirror sound' for the twin voicebanks Rin and Len, and Megurine Luka is 'sound that circles the world'. Ne (音, sound) is the signature ending for surnames – Suzune, Nekomura, Otomachi, Kasane, Yowane, Akita, and dozens of UTAU voicebanks follow the pattern – and given names are usually short, bright, two-syllable Japanese names like Rin, Len, Una, Yuki, and Teto.

Other studios go a different way. Yamaha and Internet Co. often use single stylized words in caps (MEIKO, KAITO, GUMI, CUL, IA, ONE), Western Vocaloids get plain English names (Oliver, Avanna, Sweet Ann, Big Al), and Chinese synths use full Mandarin names such as Luo Tianyi and Yuezheng Ling. Fan-made UTAUs frequently pun on their creator or personality: Kasane Teto (from 'tetopettenson' and layered sound), Yowane Haku (weak sound / weak-willed), Namine Ritsu (wave sound).

The original names in this list follow the same rules – a sound-, light-, or nature-based surname with the -ne ending, paired with a short given name – alongside a set of one-word English names for Western-style virtual singers.
