Naming a human fighter
A human fighter carries human naming tradition into the fighter's calling. Human names span a hundred kingdoms, so the tradition is broad — but fantasy humans lean on medieval European roots: Germanic, Anglo-Saxon, and Romance sounds that feel grounded, historical, and easy to say at the table. A fighter — a disciplined veteran of a hundred skirmishes — tends toward plain, sturdy names that read as dependable on a muster roll. Lean into that flavour when you pick from the names above, and pair the result with a surname or epithet that fits the class.

Human naming conventions
A human given name pairs a meaningful root (Al- 'noble', Gar- 'spear', -ric 'ruler', -win 'friend') with a gendered ending. Surnames are often descriptive — Hawklight, Ashford, Blackwood — drawn from a family's land, trade, or reputation.
