What Are Elf Names?
elf names are invented names for elves, dragons, wizards and other fantasy characters. They appear in novels like The Lord of the Rings, games like Dungeons & Dragons and World of Warcraft, and countless indie stories. A good fantasy name sounds like it belongs to its world — melodic for elves, harsh for orcs, ancient for dragons.
