Naming a half-orc wizard
A half-orc wizard carries half-orc naming tradition into the wizard'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 wizard — a scholar who bends reality through study and formula — tends toward learned, slightly formal names that suit the spine of a spellbook. Lean into that flavour when you pick from the names above, and pair the result with a surname or epithet that fits the class.
