08-27-03, 06:29 AM I'm building a troll character for a future game, and I've finished his background and all those things and then I hit a problem...his name. For some reason I can't come up with orc, troll or ogre names without making them sound stupid. So I need your help coming up with a name!

Add apostrophes and extra letters to your liking.

08-28-03, 12:16 AM Anything gutteral should do. Lots of G's, D's, and R's come to mind, with a fair helping of A's and O's.

Basically, hock up a loogie and then try to spell the noise you made, and it'll probably make a good troll name ;)

08-28-03, 07:13 PM When I was having a similar naming block (which is all too often) I learned from a trekkie friend that there are websites dedicated to the Klingon language. Just about any Klingon word is a great sounding name for a troll or orc.

Guttural sounds work well a few of my past pc's and npc's;
N'Ghak
Trask
Ghaarok
Slag

Here's some from the Slayer's Guide to Trolls:
Borakk
Brakk
Brog
Grok
Vrukkus
Traag
Glung
Plokk
Muk
Kethka
08-29-03, 07:50 PM How about Grunkie?
Mordenkainen's Rubber Duck of DOOM
08-29-03, 07:54 PM Timothy Jones? :P
Sarge? ;)
Sm'aash? :P
Kharne
08-30-03, 02:57 AM I'll go ahead and drop my EQ troll's name in here :P

Kraggoth
Illithid Tentacles
08-30-03, 09:04 AM Pretty much any gutteral-sounding collection of syallables should do. For example:

Gruknok
Nithnar
Slubdon
Griktor

And so on.
