Naming a half-orc ranger
A half-orc ranger carries half-orc naming tradition into the ranger's calling. Half-orc names carry the guttural punch of orcish — g, k, r, and hard stops — but are often a touch shorter and more pronounceable in human company, reflecting a life straddling two cultures. A ranger — a hunter and warden of the borderlands — tends toward practical names, often a given name plus a trail-earned byname. Lean into that flavour when you pick from the names above, and pair the result with a surname or epithet that fits the class.
