About Tauren names

Tauren names should feel broad and steady, like the grasslands of Mulgore at dawn. The generator favours gentle, rolling first names and surnames that speak of the land, the herds and the spirits that watch over both.

Class and spec set the tone, so a druid sounds rooted and wise while a warrior sounds like the one who stands in front when the stampede comes.

Tauren lore names to avoid

Cairne, Baine, Hamuul and Magatha belong to Thunder Bluff’s history, and the great tauren families are just as recognisable: Bloodhoof, Runetotem, Grimtotem, Thunderhorn, Highmountain, Winterhoof and Wildmane may all be refused in the game. 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.
  • Even a name the game accepts can be refused later: Blizzard can make you rename a character whose name breaks its naming policy.

These follow the usual WoW rules:

  • Accented letters like ë or é are allowed and count as one letter.
  • No apostrophes, hyphens, spaces or digits.
  • At least 2 letters per name.
  • No three of the same letter in a row.

This site can't check whether a name is taken.
