Suggestions for a unicorn name?

[pawsplay]

Obviously, this is an opportunity to misappropriate real world mythology. Alicorn and Kiren spring to mind.

what if a filly, mere or gelded?

well, if it's horn be blunted, Macy Gray.

I like Wintershade. Riverwind will always be the ranger from the original Dragonlance series to me.

Use donkeyhorse syndrome to your advantage-- and teach vocabulary while you're at it!
Here's a quick random unicorn name generator, though it seems to skew male. Maybe swap out "beard" for "locks" for the lady unicorns.

Roll 1d8 four times:

d8  (1st)     (2nd)     "THE"    (3rd)          (4th)

1   Silver     hoof               Dark          breaker
2   Wind       beard              Fiend         slasher
3   Moon       mane               Fear          slayer
4   Gold       withers            Sorrow        ender
5   White      horn               Woe           sunderer
6   Light      leg                Ruin          crusher
7   Storm      song               Terror        piercer
8   Star       charger            Night         render

I like the table! Silverhoof the Darkbreaker. Moonsong the Fiendslasher.

I'd give you XP, but I need to spread it around more first.

hmm, the only unicorn I ever had named in a campaign was called Christine.

You could use the names from the recent reboot of My Little Pony.
I'm sure there would be some that would be appropriate.

My Paladin's Unicorn Warhorse from when I was a kid was called Tysyana. I freed her from service after many years because she had been so great, basically. It would hearten me if she found another master to care for (and mentor) somewhere in another realm.

(that 360 yard teleport was such a get out of Jail free card!)

(teaches vocab and fits if you use DM Deus Ex Machinas in game).
