Tiefling Name Generator
Generate infernal tiefling names plus the virtue names many tieflings choose for themselves.
How tiefling names work
Infernal-sounding names, or a "virtue name" the tiefling chose for themselves.
- Tieflings often use an infernal birth name or a chosen virtue name (Hope, Sorrow, Reverence). The choice says a lot about how they see their heritage.
- Hard x, z and k sounds read as infernal; soften them if your tiefling is trying to fit in.
- Tieflings in most settings do not share a single surname convention; many simply go without.

Questions
What makes a name sound tiefling?
Infernal-sounding names, or a "virtue name" the tiefling chose for themselves.
Can I use these tiefling names in D&D?
Yes. They follow the naming feel described for tieflings in fantasy games, but they are generated from syllables, so they are not copied from any sourcebook. Use them freely for player characters and NPCs.
How many names can it make?
The syllable tables combine into thousands of first names, and the family names multiply that further. Press Generate as often as you like.
