Tips for Choosing the Perfect Wizard Name

• Consider age: Ancient wizards have grander, more elaborate names than young apprentices
• Add titles: “Archmage,” “the Wise,” “Spellweaver” make names more authoritative
• Think about origin: Different magical cultures have different naming conventions
• Use alliteration: “Merlin the Magnificent” or “Gandalf the Grey” are memorable
• Mix languages: Latin, Greek, and Celtic roots sound mystical and scholarly
• Consider personality: Dark wizards vs. benevolent sages need different name styles
• Test pronunciation: Your wizard’s name should be easy to say in conversation
