Naming a changeling monk
A changeling monk carries changeling naming tradition into the monk's calling. Changelings shift their faces at will, so their names are equally fluid — short, simple mask-names adopted for a role and discarded when the role ends. A changeling may have dozens of names over a lifetime. A monk — a student of body, breath, and inner balance — tends toward spare, contemplative names, sometimes a single syllable or a virtue. Lean into that flavour when you pick from the names above, and pair the result with a surname or epithet that fits the class.
