Naming a human sorcerer
A human sorcerer carries human naming tradition into the sorcerer'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 sorcerer — a caster whose power runs in the blood — tends toward evocative names that hint at the lineage that sparks their magic. Lean into that flavour when you pick from the names above, and pair the result with a surname or epithet that fits the class.
