ForeverHelperOrc names for WoW Forever
About Orc names
An orc name should be easy to shout across a battlefield. The generator goes for short, harsh first names and surnames that sound earned, the kind a warchief would remember after the fight.
Your class and spec steer the meaning: a shaman gets names with the elements in them, and a warlock gets something darker that the clan might not talk about.
Orc lore names to avoid
The Horde’s legends left names the game may refuse: Thrall, Durotan, Orgrim, Grom, Garrosh, Saurfang, Eitrigg, Draka and Gul’dan, along with Hellscream, Doomhammer and the clans Frostwolf, Warsong, Blackrock and Dragonmaw. Type a name into “Keep a name you already have” to check it.
WoW Forever name rules
- Every character needs a first name and a surname.
- Each name can be at most 12 letters.
- Only the full name has to be unique.
- Names that match Warcraft characters, titles or restricted words may be rejected in-game.

- At least 2 letters per name.
