Goblin Name Style	Example Names	Inspirations & Background	Characteristics
Gruff & Grimy	Grung Skullcrusher, Burdok Gutrot, Fliznik Grumblemaw	Classic fantasy goblin tropes, gritty realism, emphasis on physical characteristics and battle prowess. Often linked to war/violence.	Usually conveys strength or crudeness. Names focus on brute force with crude imagery. Common among goblins in militaristic or barbaric societies.
Resourceful & Crafty	Fimblewrench, Gizmotwist, Sprocketcog	Mechanical invention, ingenuity, scavenging, and making the most of limited resources.	Suggests intelligence and a knack for tinkering. Inspired by goblins’ reputation for inventive (if often unreliable) machines and contraptions.
Sneaky & Devious	Nibblesnitch, Whispershaft, Shadowshanker	Thievery, trickery, stealth, and underhanded dealings.	Evokes images of sneaky characters who prefer deception over direct confrontation. Perfect for rogue-like and cunning goblin types.
Grotesque & Amusing	Blinkydink, Wartnose, Pimplefoot	Embrace the goblin’s often unsettling appearance with a comical twist. Exaggerated physicality and humorous abnormalities.	Often used for comedic effect, these names play on the goblin’s physical traits to create a memorable and often disgusting image.
Tribal & Ancestral	Gruznak, Kiznit, Murgak	Goblin tribal lore often forgotten, giving the characters a sense of mystery or tradition, names might sound archaic, guttural, and reflect the power or value of a goblin clan. Can be also linked to deities or leaders	Gives a deeper historical connotation by adding depth to the character’s lore along with the clan history.
