lol, im loking for prefixes and suffixes and roots. a list of them. so that i can have them randomly picked in my program, preferebly by sound.

[i luffs yeww]

Roots (http://www.southampton.liu.edu/academic/pau/course/webroot.htm), prefixes (http://www.southampton.liu.edu/academic/pau/course/webpre.htm), and suffixes (http://www.southampton.liu.edu/academic/pau/course/websuf.htm).

Other helpful below.

prefixes with definitions (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_prefixes#List_of_English_prefixes)

lol, that is helpfull but not quite what i am looking for, i want more just sounds, instead of actual prefixes with meanings. like ogres tend to have more bruitish names while elves are weaker/sharper and fragile

I could create a list on my own, but it would take a while, and im not too good at it :P

Here's something I made awhile ago:

I know its not exactly what your looking for, but sometimes it comes up with some neat names.

For your names I suggest looking up a D&D name database or something. I don't think the suffixes etc. would create the best of names, but hey prove me wrong if you find a good database for it. I know I've seen a very limited number where u could put them in any order and they would sound good (don't know where I saw it tho) but there was only a list of 20 of each to place in certain order.

Try google next time ;)

[g0tp0t]

i neee the list. not the result. those generators have a list of their own, i need a list also. seventhsanctum owns that site :P

[i luffs yeww]

:/ Did you even read what I posted? It gave the information you needed. And if you want a list of what rinkworks.com/namegen has, here you go.

Good luck.

[g0tp0t]

...yes i read ur post, and no. i said i need character/fantasy names. not normal human names. who names rs characters after humans... :P.

and to that last post, i honestly had thought that they generated everything on their servers. ill try the source for seventh sanctuum. they are definetly the biggest and best name gen out there.


EDIT: i ound it!!! i found a list. about friggin time !!!!! http://www.kismetrose.com/dnd/DrowNameGenerator.html

[Zyt3x]

omg dude wtf... I have used the link I gave you for my accounts... Why couldn't you accept that? <_<

[g0tp0t]

bbecause i need the source list. and gtood ones. yours wasnt quite whjat i wanted.n also dont use that, use seventh sanctum

[Zyt3x]

I don't really understand why though... :/
http://www.rinkworks.com/namegen/fnames.cgi?d=checked&f=2
No offence, but what is the difference between that and the one you are using?

[g0tp0t]

seventh sanctuum is huge and generates more names. also has ability to customize what they mean or how they sound. along with a crap ton of other generators too. like character describer, which describes characters it randomly makes. story ideas. and a crap ton more.

EDIT: before zytexs replies to this post, he has 2k + 1337 posts :D
