Naming a gnome monk
A gnome monk carries gnome naming tradition into the monk's calling. Gnome names are quick, bright, and a little bit fizzy, full of z, k, and short vowels. They sound like a name that might also be the name of a small explosive device — which, for a gnome, is often a compliment. A monk — a student of body, breath, and inner balance — tends toward spare, contemplative names, sometimes a single syllable or a virtue. Lean into that flavour when you pick from the names above, and pair the result with a surname or epithet that fits the class.
