Frequently Asked Questions
What languages inspire dwarven names?
Most fantasy dwarven names draw from Norse, Old English, and Germanic roots — languages with strong consonants and no-nonsense structure that match dwarven culture perfectly.
How are dwarf surnames typically formed?
Dwarven family names often combine a material (Iron, Gold, Stone, Copper) with a noun (beard, fist, mantle, peak) — reflecting crafts, deeds, or physical traits.
