Iconic Name Inspirations in Tyria

To illustrate the type of names one might expect, here are some examples rooted in specific Guild Wars 2 lore, organized by race and cultural background:

Name Feature Source/Background Story Examples Significance
Norn Bear Lodge Influenced Names Referencing the Spirits of the Wild, who are revered figures of power and guidance in Norn culture. Bear, Raven, Wolf, and Snow Leopard are especially important. Valka Bearclaw, Torvin Snowstalker, Freya Bearmother, Bjorn Wolfbane Names often include an honorific/title or verb, denoting strength, lineage, and devotion to the Spirit of Bear. Represents strength, resilience, courage.
Asura Invented/Compound Names The Asura are known for their intellect and love of combining words and concepts in order to achieve perfection. Their names should display scientific inclination. Infinium Paradox, Zetta Particle, Unstable Catalyst, Null Theorem Reflects the Asuran focus on logical arguments and invention. Usually related to technological progress, scientific theory research, or even humorous inventions.
Charr Legion Titles Incorporated into Surnames Charr society is heavily structured around the Legions. The Iron Legion, Blood Legion, Ash Legion, and Flame Legion (though no longer a legitimate Legion) each impart unique attributes. Rytlock Brimstone (Blood Legion), Pyre Fierceshot (refernce extinguished flame legion), Crecia Stoneglow(Ash Legion-adjacent), Forgefire (Iron Legion-esque) Shows rank and devotion on behalf of the char in line for their place to perform. Usually reflects a strong affinity with that legion’s core values.
Sylvari Dream and Firstborn Influenced Names Sylvari are born from the Pale Tree and have fragmented memories of the Dream. The character sounds soft, but often relates to flora or fauna, perhaps relating to past-lives if you dig deeper Caithe Swiftblade, Trahearne Lostwisdom, Faolain Wisterstride, Keiran Thanehill Often contain a combination of sylvan sounding adjectives, animals, or plant life descriptors associated with the character. Firstborn have the strongest, most decisive association to that pre-birth Dream.
Human Divinity’s Reach Nobility Referencing common places, professions, or roles within the kingdom of Kryta. Lord Valerick, Lady Anya, Seraph Eliana, Countess Annalise. Names are often followed up with the nobility title, signifying status, land, importance, within Divinity’s reach. Can denote wealth and good-character.
