Naming an elf paladin
An elf paladin carries elf naming tradition into the paladin's calling. Elven names favour flowing vowels and soft consonants — ae, ia, th, l, r — and rarely end abruptly. A name is meant to sound like music when spoken aloud, reflecting a culture that lives long enough to treat language as an art form in its own right. 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.

Many elves also carry a house or clan name such as Windwhisper or Starflower, used formally and among kin.
