A fantasy themed random name generator.

Project description

Fantasy Name Generator

A random name generator that produces names aligning (more or less) with common conventions for fantasy characters in fictional media such as Dungeons and Dragons or World of Warcraft.

Installation

python3 -m pip install fantasynames

Usage

The following name generating functions are provided for a variety of different stereotypical fantasy "races", as well as a few different "medieval-y" languages:

import fantasynames as names

names.elf()
# Example outputs: 'Farathia Eaviel', 'Iethian Willowblossom'

names.dwarf()
# Example outputs: 'Thrunnor Ironfury', 'Lothuna Strongmail'

names.hobbit()
# Example outputs: 'Libby Honeyfoot', 'Flublius Sweetscone'

names.french()
# Example outputs: 'Auland Roublac', 'Rondri de Clardalle'

names.anglo()
# Example outputs: 'Brandin of Avonlyn', 'Kallem Davenmere'

names.human()
# Example outputs: 'Danric du Tourbloc', 'Sumia Sageholme'

Note that human() provides a diverse mix of different first and last name styles, including anglo() and french()...and more!
