Magic: The Gathering Human Name Generator
Start with a full batch of Human names, then narrow by tone until something fits the character or place you have in mind. Results are shaped to sit comfortably alongside established Magic: The Gathering naming, so they suit fan fiction and tabletop play without clashing with canon. Switching tone changes the whole character of a human name, so it is worth trying more than one.
