WFRP Name Generator

I've looked at quite a few sources of names and name generators while working on my WFRP Character Foundry, yet none of the ones I found were particularly suitable for use with WFRP. So I've extracted the name generation system from the Foundry to create my own WFRP Name Generator. Feedback and comments are welcome even if you just drop me a email to say you've found it useful in your game.

Click here to download the WFRP Name Generator.
The download is a .zip file, approximately 230KBs in size, containing the single application file that should run under Windows 95 or later. Just unzip the file and put the WFRPName.exe file wherever you want it. Obviously, just run that file to use the WFRP Name Generator.

And if you like my WFRP Name Generator, take a look at my WFRP Character Foundry too.

I've been surprised to find out that people are finding uses for my name generator beyond my original intentions. So here's a quick guide to where, in the real world, inspired the names produced by my WFRP Name Generator.

And here's some links relating to some of the alternative uses for my name generator that I've heard about:

http://www.ruthiessims2challenges.netfirms.com/ - This was the first alternative use I heard about, generating names for characters in EA's Sims games.

If you've found an alternative use for it that isn't listed, please drop me a line to let me know.
