Question 1

What is Name Weaver?

Accepted Answer

Name Weaver is a powerful fantasy name generator that uses a pattern-based engine to help you create unique and evocative names for your characters, places, and anything else in your creative projects like RPGs, stories, or worldbuilding.

Question 2

How do I use the custom pattern feature?

Accepted Answer

The custom pattern feature allows you to define the structure of your names using special symbols. For example, 'sVcv' might generate a name like 'Lor-i-ak'. 's' stands for a syllable, 'V' for a vowel or vowel combo, and 'c' for a consonant. Check out our comprehensive 'Patterns & Presets Guide' for a full list of symbols and advanced techniques!

Question 3

Can I generate multiple names at once?

Accepted Answer

Yes! You can specify the number of names you want to generate (up to 100) using the input field on the generator page. Your generated names will appear in a list.

Question 4

How can I save the names I generate?

Accepted Answer

Once names are generated, you have several options: you can copy all names to your clipboard, export them as a TXT file, or export them as a CSV file for easy use in spreadsheets or other applications.

Question 5

Are the presets customizable?

Accepted Answer

While you can't directly edit a preset, selecting a preset will load its pattern into the 'Custom Pattern' textarea. You can then modify this pattern to fine-tune the results to your liking!

Question 6

Is Name Weaver free to use?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Name Weaver is currently free to use for all your creative naming needs.

Question 7

How does the 'Quick Pattern Syntax' in the generator differ from the full 'Patterns & Presets Guide'?

Accepted Answer

The 'Quick Pattern Syntax' on the generator page provides a brief overview of the most common symbols for quick reference. The full 'Patterns & Presets Guide' (accessible from the header menu) offers a much more detailed explanation of every symbol, advanced techniques, and breaks down all available presets.

Does Name Weaver work offline?
