Alright, so I’m sitting here, coffee in hand, thinking about how I’ve spent way too many years messing around with elf names—918 of them, to be exact. Why elves?
I don’t know, maybe it’s the pointy ears or that ethereal vibe they’ve got going on. Ever wonder what it’d be like to name something that’s basically immortal? It’s a lot of pressure, trust me. I’ve been down this rabbit hole since my D&D days in high school, scribbling names in notebooks when I probably should’ve been paying attention in class—sorry, Mr. Jenkins.
Back then, I’d get lost dreaming up elf name ideas for characters I’d never even play. It’s funny how that stuck with me. Now, I’m the weirdo who’s got a whole list—918, no less—because I can’t stop brainstorming.
Ever try naming an elf yourself? It’s trickier than it sounds. You want it to feel magical, but not cheesy, right? (Okay, maybe a little cheesy is fine.) I’d be lying if I said I didn’t have favorites—some of these names still make me grin like an idiot.
And yeah, I’ve leaned on an elf name generator or two when I hit a wall, but the best ones? They’re the ones I’ve scratched out by hand, usually at 2 a.m. with a cold pizza slice staring at me. This isn’t just some random list—it’s personal, messy, and packed with stories. Want to know the ones that made the cut?
Stick around, because I’m spilling all 918 elf names in this post, and I bet you’ll find one that clicks for you too.
