Elder Scrolls Nord Names
Nords—Tamriel’s proud, hardy people of the north—have a naming style inspired by Old Norse and Scandinavian traditions. Their first names are strong, blunt, and often end in rugged consonants or heroic-sounding suffixes like “-mir,” “-var,” “-gunn,” or “-hild.” Surnames are equally evocative and can reference lineage (Bjornson), deeds (Ice-Breaker), or places (of Windhelm). Combined, Nord names evoke the snow, steel, and saga-filled culture of Skyrim’s warriors, hunters, and jarls.
With this generator, you can skip the name-hunt and instantly outfit your character with a name that carries the roar of the north and the legacy of Sovngarde.
