Make the name fit your character

Consider the character’s home landscape, role and personality before choosing. A forest scout may benefit from a short name easily called across a clearing, while an elder or druid might suit a more flowing sound. A surname such as Fernbrook or Ashenwatch can suggest family history without needing an elaborate invented language.
