Shadowrun Name Generator
Shadowrun names are generated here with an eye on how they sound aloud, not just how they read on the page. Results are shaped to sit comfortably alongside established Shadowrun naming, so they suit fan fiction and tabletop play without clashing with canon. Tone filters help when a general roll drifts away from the shadowrun you actually pictured. One click copies a name; the export menu takes the full list into your notes or game files.
