Questions
- Which cultures do human names draw from?
- Eight regional ethnicities from the Forgotten Realms: Calishite, Chondathan, Damaran, Illuskan, Mulan, Rashemi, Shou, and Turami. Each has its own first-name and surname pools, and one is chosen at random per generated name.
- Why do the example names below look like they come from different cultures?
- Every name in a batch rolls its own ethnicity independently, so a five-name batch can mix Illuskan, Chondathan, and other regional styles in the same list.
