Serum's Irriseni Name Generator

[Serum]

In an effort to help build NPCs that my players encounter on their trip through Irrisen, I've compiled all of the names of native Irriseni I could find in The Snows of Summer, The Shackled Hut, Cities of Golarion, and Irrisen - Land of Eternal Winter into a Google Sheet.

Serum's Irriseni Name Generator

If you find your players have gone off the beaten path and are exploring slightly more of Irrisen and Whitethrone than you expected, please feel free to use and/or copy this generator to populate your encounters with Irriseni.

Some notes:

• The majority of humans in Irrisen are made up of two ethnicities: Jadwiga, who make up the majority of the noble and officer classes, and Ulfen, who make up the majority of the peasant and soldier classes (otherwise filled by other races, but generally not other human ethnicities). The merchant class is made up of a mix of Jadwiga, Ulfen and other foreign ethnicities and races.
  
• Non-Jadwiga humans who show great potential in witchcraft (and likely other arcane magic) are sometimes adopted into Jadwiga families and are henceforth raised as Jadwiga.
  
• Ulfen born in Irrisen almost always have Irriseni names, not the Ulfen names one associates with the Land of the Linnorm Kings.
  
• The majority of the Jadwiga ethnicity have surnames descended from their ancestral queen progenitors, but a significant minority have taken up other names for various reasons. These names seem identical to what the Irriseni merchant and peasant classes use.
  
• Similarly, there seems to be no difference in the first names of Irriseni in different classes.
  
• Other ethnicities/races found in Irrisen generally follow the guidelines for their own ethnicity/race.
  
• Monsters and fey found in Irrisen have names that follow the general guidelines for their kind; the closest names that match an ethnicity are those of Frost Giants and Winter Wolves, which are similar to traditional Ulfen (Scandinavian) names.
  
• Irriseni names are similar to Slavic names, with the addition that either the traditional patronymic name or surame can be used as an Irriseni surname. Irriseni surnames are not dependent on a person's gender, unlike most Slavic names.

If you'd like random names for characters of other ethnicities and race, check out dungeonetics name generators and Emily's name generators. Emily's site has all sorts of other helpful generators, including a Slavic name generator that works very well as a additional source of Irriseni names.
