Naming an orc paladin
An orc paladin carries orc naming tradition into the paladin's calling. Orc names are short, hard, and aggressive, built from guttural consonants and abrupt stops. A name is meant to sound like a threat or a war-cry, and the strongest orcs earn an epithet that replaces any family name. A paladin — an oath-bound champion sworn to a sacred cause — tends toward noble, resonant names that sound right when a herald calls them. Lean into that flavour when you pick from the names above, and pair the result with a surname or epithet that fits the class.
