Naming Drow characters

[krunchyfrogg]

I need a little help creating some Drow names.

I need two decent sounding male names, as well as two decent sounding female names.

I don't think this'll make much of a difference, but two of the characters (one male and one female) are going to be Paladins.

Considering the abuse of meaningless apostrophes that are features in most drow names, how about '''''''''''''''''' ?

Or just a combination of X, Z, Y, and '. Zy'x'zz. Y'xx'zy. Xz'y'xz.

One important piece of advice. Stay the hells away from the name Pharaun!!! Yes, it sounds cool, but before long you'll realise that everyone thought so.

You know, lots of Zs Xs and 's are the way to go. Other than that, go for something darkly melodical.

Some names I used are

Kye('rexavynn)
Jelenneth
Jaennix
Pharaun
Merinid

All male names.

If you have the FRCS, there's some sample names in there (Pharaun and Merinid are from there)

The 2e supplement Drow of the Underdark has an extensive list of male and female drow names. Or look here:

Plot and Poison also has a nice section on the topic.
