About Windshaper names

Windshaper names are meant to sound like moving air, light and quick and hard to pin down. Expect breezy first names and surnames of sky, weather and high places.

Your class and spec steer the meaning, so a shaman sounds like the storm itself and a rogue sounds like the hush just before it.

What we know so far

The Skyborne are a new addition to Warcraft lore, elves who shared Skywall with the wind spirits until the spirits disappeared. The Windshapers are the Horde half: shen’dorei elves gifted with an elemental skysight, set on bringing the spirits back.

Everything about the naming style here is the site’s own invention, grounded in that published lore.

Windshaper lore names to avoid

No Windshaper has been named yet, so the names to steer clear of come from their history: Al’Akir and Skywall, and Highborne names like Azshara and Xavius. 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.
