Wizard Name Generator
Every archmage needs a name that sounds like it was earned over centuries. This free generator conjures wise, arcane wizard names — with optional titles — for D&D, novels and games.
Generate until one feels ancient, then copy it. Add a school or element above (like 'storm' or 'necromancy') to colour the results.
Add your name or an interest to weave it into the ideas, or leave it blank for random names.
The AI uses this to match your niche, search terms and a brandable domain — and recommends its top 3 with reasons. The free button above always works with no limits.

Tips for a name that sticks
Age the name
Wizard names sound best slightly archaic — endings like -dric, -gast and -vius suggest dusty tomes and long study. Modern-sounding names break the spell.
Let the title do the lore
'The Grey', 'Stormcaller', 'of the High Tower' — a title tells the table your wizard's whole reputation in three words. Use one for named NPCs and archmages.
Keep it castable
You will say this name every session, often mid-initiative. Three syllables or fewer for the base name keeps it quick at the table.

Slightly archaic sounds, an easy-to-say base of two or three syllables, and optionally a title that hints at the wizard's school, deeds or order.
