Bring out your Names!
After a recent request, I noticed I tend toward odd names. Â So, maybe other would like to share theirs as well. Â Feel free to add your lists of names.
Lnks to name generators would be acceptable too.

Update: Going to chase Strolens about the formatting... :)
I will make no quips about the white-space (though a few come to mind). This would be an amazing sub some day when we have thousands of names here!! Will add my rogues gallery!! Good idea, val!
this is a fun idea
I would appreciate if it was separated into boy names, girl names, and specified in the title that these are NPC names and not tavern names or town names.
Very practical. Like PA, I'd like to see some categories.
Ditto. Will hold off voting till I see a bit more organisation, but good idea.
It is what it is: A solid list of names :)
Or, it will be when we get some more into it! :D I'll delve through my subs and pull up a few for addition to this! I may have to be reminded to do this, though :p
Done! Threw up my names into the sub!
My main argument against categorization is that it is extremely arbitrary to say what 'gender' a name is, especially with ones without cultural history.
eg. Mary.
Female of course. Why not Gary? Same ending.
eg:
Akira. Male Japanese name.
The only generic answer is not to categorize, though I have no problems with added lists being categorized, or someone organizing their own lists using the names here.
Just root through the list and find something you like :)
Well, if you don't want to divide them into genders, I would still advocate putting them in alphabetical order, to make them easier to survey.
That's fair. I'll look at doing that, though organizing multiple column tables is a bit.. tedious :)
Voted.
This sub is a good source of names as well as its true use: These_Are_Our_Gods
