Dungeons & Dragons Troll Name Generator
This generator builds Troll names on demand, and gives you the meaning behind each one rather than a bare list. Results are shaped to sit comfortably alongside established Dungeons & Dragons naming, so they suit fan fiction and tabletop play without clashing with canon. Four tone filters — noble, dark, mystic, and short — cut a wide batch down to something usable. Export options cover Markdown, CSV, JSON, and TXT, so results drop straight into whatever tool you write in.
