Monster names

Monster names can differ drastically, depending on culture and mythology and the kind of monster. Some cultures have specific monster names, such as the Japanese Oni or the Navajo Skinwalker. Other monsters, such as vampires and werewolves, have evolved over time with various names and attributes in different regions.

Many monster names are coined from a combination of sounds and words that create something unique and often terrifying.

But our monster name generator takes another approach: It generates a completely new name for your monster, sometimes combining it with an adjective. And if the generated monster is very special, it even gets its own title like "King of Dragons" or "the Furious"!

So, stop reading and start generating!

Monster name ideas

If you need ideas for your monster’s name, look no further. Here are some great ideas on how to name your monster.

1. Decide on its species

Are you creating a ghost, zombie, dragon, or something completely unique? Your monster’s species can often inform its name.

2. Decide on its origin

Is your monster from an ancient culture or a made-up one? Maybe it’s from another planet or dimension. Consider the origin and history of your monster to come up with a fitting name.

You can also consider elements such as gender, physical attributes, and personality traits to come up with a unique name that fits your creature perfectly.

3. Decide on the kind of monster name

Many monsters are just called something along the line of "The Bonerattler", "Bigfoot", or "The Shadow King", while other monsters get something more abstract like "Jabberwocky" or "Snallygaster". (Our monster name generator generates the latter.)

And remember, the best monster names are often those that instill fear and intrigue in the person hearing them. So have fun and be creative! And if all else fails, our monster name generator is here to help!
