About demon names

Demon names should feel old and wrong. Hard stops and hissing sounds, like z, th, g and x, mixed with heavy vowels, make names that sound like something you shouldn't say three times.

Greater demons carry grand, unsettling titles such as the Thousand-Eyed Duke. Imps are a different matter: small, spiteful and named accordingly. Switch the type to Imp for short, scrappy names with equally unflattering titles.

Tips for choosing a demon name

1

Use the title as a warning

A demon's title should tell heroes what it wants, or what it takes.

2

Make imps funny

Imps are a great source of comic relief. Their titles reflect that.

3

Names have power

In many settings, a demon's true name can bind it. Decide who knows it.
