    I've just finished spending an hour and a bit making this generator which should help you if you're having trouble thinking up Argonian names. I made it for personal use as I can't think of a name for my new character but I figured others might be able get some enjoyment out of it. It makes name like [EnglishWord]-[EnglishWord] and I've found some pretty cool ones so far, like Ember-Dancer and Shadow-Jumper.

    It can be found here;

    Two-Word Version


    Three-Word Version


    Like it or not? Are there certain words you'd like to see included in either part? Let me know if you have something to say regarding anything. :)

    EDIT: Updated with a Verb-Noun-Comparative Adjective three-word version. Check it out!

    This could prove useful to some people, so good job. Personally I've only played as an Argonian a couple times since Daggerfall and he was always called Whiptail.

    That's really neat and very helpful. Thanks for sharing it with us, FlickerWick.

    I rub my nipples in salute.

    Pretty nice! The first one I got was "Sun Seeker." I dunno about an Argonian, but that describes ME pretty succintly!

    I took my inspiration from the legendary "hauls ropes faster" from oblivion. I called my Argonian sneaky assassin Kills Without Mercy.

    Nice work! I got Stone Swimmer my first go... seems that would be a little painful, though. :D

    It would be fun to see a three-word variation; you could probably get some hilarious Mad Libesque results. First word would be a verb, second a noun, third a comparitive adjective—like Hauls-Ropes-Faster. So you'd get things like, Pushes-Boulders-Higher or Eats-Flowers-Lazier.

    Thanks for the positive feedback, guys. It's much appreciated! And imaginepageant, I might get around to doing that for a laugh soon. Seems like it could provide some pretty funny outcomes. :p

    Looks good!

    Now you just need to go through the Argonian name list and add all those into the mix :D

    Updated with the three-word version. It isn't very sensible but it's good for a few laughs so be sure to check it out. And hey, whilst you're at it, why not leave a little reputation? ;)

    Haha OMG I decided to play my first Argonian tonite, and I'm actually having more fun with this than the game itself LOL. Finishes Dwarves Attractively? OMG super win :D

    The Professor likes the idea and appreciates that you went through the process of making it. However, the generator lacks a great ordeal of words that could make some really innovative and neat name ideas. Seeing that you only spent an hour doing this, I suggest perhaps a day where you're not busy or simply have nothing to do if you want to improve upon it or make another name generator for another race, etc. Though I do find some of the name results to be humorous, it sort of doesn't follow the Cyrodilic naming system for Argonians. The two-name seems to only go by noun-noun, the first one being a regular noun and the other describing a type of person based on the actions he or she performs. In the link that Gemini provided, there are in-game examples of Argonian characters from the Elder Scrolls series that go by adjective-noun.
    • Big Head
    • Dreaded-Water
    • Fine-Mouth
    • Grey-Throat
    • High-Heart
    As for the three-name generator, you've already mentioned that it follows the verb-noun-comparative adjective pattern. In-game, there isn't a specific pattern. From the very same link:
    • Also-He-Washes
    • Sings-Like-Thunder
    • Hauls-Ropes-Faster
    • Swims-In-Swells
    • Hides-His-Foot
    I checked that Generator Land website and I now see why you went with that pattern, being that you'd have to make several other generators to perfectly portray the Argonian naming system in the Cyrodilic form. Again, I like the idea of this generator and see that it would be ideal for those that want a Cyrodilic name rather than the normal Saxhleel name (Cool place to generate Argonian names). Just make sure you have a lot of free time when doing this type of thing. It will look a lot better in the end. Cheers!

    I couldn't make this one up if I wanted to. I may need to plan out an Argonian thief/assassin/mercenary who only works to pay his bar tab.

    Edit: Might I add, that was the first one that came up.
