Naming a duergar paladin
A duergar paladin carries duergar naming tradition into the paladin's calling. Duergar names are dwarven names turned grim and lightless — the same hard consonants, but stripped of warmth, favouring ash, grey, and chain imagery. 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.
