About kingdom names
Kingdom names need to sound good when a herald announces them and look good printed across a map. Two or three syllables, with a recognisable ending such as -doria, -heim or -mark, do the job well.
The realm type matters as much as the name. A kingdom, a grand duchy and a free city each suggest a different kind of politics. Turn on 'Known for' to get a detail that hints at the realm's history and character.
Tips for choosing a kingdom name

Use the detail
A queen who has ruled for two hundred years raises questions players will want answered.
Questions
Can I use these for planets or sci-fi worlds?
Many will work, especially without the realm type.
Are these real places?
No. They're generated, so any resemblance to a real place is a coincidence.
