Naming a drow paladin
A drow paladin carries drow naming tradition into the paladin's calling. Drow names are sharper and darker than surface elven names, favouring z, x, v, and ae sounds. They carry the intrigue of a matriarchal Underdark society where a house name is a weapon and a warning. A paladin — an oath-bound champion sworn to a sacred cause — tends toward noble, resonant names that sound right when a herald calls them. Lean into that flavour when you pick from the names above, and pair the result with a surname or epithet that fits the class.
