Naming an orc sorcerer
An orc sorcerer carries orc naming tradition into the sorcerer'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 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.
