Naming a dwarf warlock
A dwarf warlock carries dwarf naming tradition into the warlock's calling. Dwarven names are short, hard, and grounded: heavy on th, d, b, k, and r, light on frills. They sound like something you would carve into stone, which suits a culture of miners, smiths, and masons who measure worth in lasting work. A warlock — a bargainer bound to a powerful otherworldly patron — tends toward charged names, sometimes one given in the pact rather than at birth. Lean into that flavour when you pick from the names above, and pair the result with a surname or epithet that fits the class.
