Tips for Choosing the Perfect Mage Name

1

Match the magical tradition

Choose names that fit your world's magical system. Elemental mages should have names reflecting their element, while scholarly mages need more academic-sounding names.

2

Consider power level

More powerful mages often have longer, more imposing names or titles. An apprentice might have a simpler name, while an archmage could have a grand, multi-part name with titles.

3

Think about pronunciation

Ensure the name is pronounceable for your audience. Even mystical names should have a clear pronunciation so readers or players can say them comfortably.

4

Balance uniqueness and familiarity

The best mage names are unique enough to be memorable but have familiar elements that make them feel authentic and grounded in magical tradition.

5

Create naming patterns

If you're creating multiple mages from the same magical school or culture, maintain some consistency in naming patterns while keeping each name unique.
