How it works

Choose a setting style, then generate original city name ideas. Keep duplicate protection on to build a clean list for a map, campaign, or story outline.

Useful for

  • Fantasy map labels
  • Fictional settings
  • Tabletop campaign notes

A quick tip

Pair a generated city name with a landscape, local trade, and one historical event to make the setting feel lived in.

Match the name to the setting

Fantasy names feel broad and mythic, coastal names use maritime cues, frontier names suggest landscape and travel, and modern names fit contemporary fictional places.

Build a useful map list

Generate ten unique names, then reserve the strongest few for capitals, ports, border towns, or locations your players will revisit.
