Naming a githyanki rogue
A githyanki rogue carries githyanki naming tradition into the rogue's calling. Githyanki names are sharp and martial, with hard consonants and a faintly alien ring.

Lean into that flavour when you pick from the names above, and pair the result with a surname or epithet that fits the class.
