The Genius Guide to Name Traits adds a new category of trait -- name traits -- based on the idea that what your character is called can impact who your character is. There's a brief primer to make sure you can use name traits even if you don't normally use other traits, and then rules for determining what minor bonuses characters' names can give them.
There's a name generator with 38 name prefixes, 20 male name suffixes and 2 female suffixes, with each name segment granting its own 1/2 trait benefit (allowing for 1,520 unique name traits), and 12 thematic name traits (such as "name of Strength") to allow traits to be assigned to existing names with iconic fantasy meanings.
So that's 1,532 new traits! Sort of. :)
