Advice


So i'm making a group of three npc's that are going to act as a rival adventuering group, and i'm having trouble coming up with names that don't sound stupid. The group consists of a level 5 wizard who is an ex-noble who lost his status due to the false accusation of treason, a level 5 human fighter who specializes in polearms (haven't settled on any specific one yet) and acts a loyal guardian and personal friend to the wizard, and a level 5 halfling bard that is pretty sterotypical in nature and used be employed to the wizard.

So thats pretty much it, i just want some ideas on names for each of them, or any suggestions for the group themselves. Thanks in advance.

Name your fighter Pierce. Or Lance.

Or is that too campy?

Can you give us any pointers on the setting? Is it Golarion? If not, what kind of cultural parallels can we draw? Names that evoke (but do not imitate) the cultural inspirations of the game world often work well.


wizard - Auberic/Alberic
fighter - Sigismund
bard - Jimmy Tubthumper

We are using the inner sea as our setting.

I find that "borrowing" names from fantasy/sci fi works well.
