Gothic, ominous names for villains, antiheroes and tragic backstories.
Elegant, cyber, nature and magic

Hero, villain, antihero, sidekick, mentor or rival — each changes how the name feels.
How to Use the OC Name Generator
01
Choose aesthetic, role and gender
Leave any option on Any for more variety.
02
Add a theme or fandom (optional)
Type a theme like "starlight" or a fandom like Genshin Impact or My Hero Academia to match its naming style — without copying canon characters.
03
Copy the name and nickname
Each card shows the name, nickname and meaning. Copy it straight onto your OC sheet.
Tips for Naming an OC
Give them a nickname
What friends call your OC says a lot about their relationships.
Let the meaning carry a hint
A name meaning "ember" on a fire user, or "peace" on a warrior with a past, adds depth.
Fit the fandom, avoid canon
Match the fandom's naming style, but don't reuse a canon character's name.
Check it in a sentence
Write "___ smiled" with the name. If it reads awkwardly, try the next one.
