    Good luck on two of those even making it through. I tried to name my Necro "Argus the Bone Lord" and the profanity filter flagged "Bone Lord" and would not allow it. I actually wasn't even TRYING for anything hue-hue-hue or eyebrow-waggling, yet I was scolded and not allowed anyway.

    That's ridiculous. There are even NPCs called Bonelords. Lots.

    And back in Morrowind, there were these:

    Yup, was part of my inspiration for it. Figured surely since it’s in the game, it must be fine. But the UI blocked me from using it at the naming screen.

    The names you picked are fine, just to give you more options.

    Unfortunately, the TES name generators on that site aren't exactly accurate, though (it's just a random combination from a catalogue of syllables and sometimes words). Although I'm indeed a huge fan of the mighty Nord warrior

    And the names Bethesda and ZOS come up with are better? LoL. Those examples made me laugh though, that’s awesome.

    At least, they have a consistency when it comes to names. You can clearly see which race a name belongs to (with some overlaps when it comes to Dunmer, Bosmer and Altmer, which makes sense logically as they have the same ancestors), and with some races, the names are also related to the real-life culture the race has borrowed from when it comes to aspects like architecture or clothing.

    There are many things ZOS and Bethesda can be criticized for, but the naming of their characters (actually the whole worldbuilding and characterization of in-game cultures) isn't one of these things.

    Well, either way I like that website… it has helped me name characters when I was stuck.
