Undead names for WoW Forever
About Undead names
Undead names should feel like they belonged to someone once and are still getting used to their new owner. The generator aims for cold, spare first names and surnames with a grim sense of humour buried in them.
Class and spec decide the flavour: a mage gets something scholarly and pale, and a paladin gets a name that sounds like a vow kept past death.
Undead lore names to avoid
The Forsaken and the Scourge both have famous names the game may refuse: Sylvanas, Nathanos, Varimathras, Arthas, Kel’Thuzad and Rivendare, plus Windrunner and Menethil. 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.
