Italian name generator

About This Tool

This tool generates Italian names for writers, game designers, localization teams, and researchers needing authentic naming options while preserving regional nuances. It accepts optional preferences such as gender, region of origin, name length, and whether to include surnames or patronymics. The goal is to reduce manual curation time and improve cultural plausibility.
Conceptually, the engine draws from curated name pools by region (e.g., Tuscany, Lombardy, Sicily) and applies phonotactic rules to assemble plausible given name and surname pairs. It supports deterministic generation via seeds for repeatable batches and can produce multiple variants per request. Example: generate 5 names with male gender from Lombardy.
Distinct value includes region-aware construction, diacritic handling, optional surname/patronymic, and gender-aware filtering to match character profiles. It respects current Italian naming norms and also supports historical variants to fit period settings. The tool is designed for consistent, export-ready outputs that align with localization workflows.
Use cases span author world-building, media localization, video game naming, branding for Italian markets, and linguistic research. Core features include inputs for gender, region, length; optional surname; reproducible results via seed; and an export-ready list of names.
