Hey everyone,
I’ve been working on a dark fantasy novel, and one thing I keep running into is naming characters and places. I want them to sound eerie, mysterious, and memorable without being too over-the-top or cliché. I’ve tried mixing old languages, mythological roots, and even random generators, but nothing feels quite right.
At this point, I’m specifically looking for inspiration or strategies when it comes to creating dark fantasy names that feel authentic and immersive.
Do you have any go-to resources, techniques, or examples that really helped you craft names for your own projects?
