Our player who likes doing this to the DM: “So they’re giving us horses? What are the horses’ names?” Our DM: “…no. You choose.”
This is how I accidentally named one guy “ThisGuy” and the other, “Thatguy.”
On the plus side, Jim Bob the bridge builder is a long term friend I keep looking up when we visit town.
I need to start doing this to my DM
Any npc I make up on the fly is 100% an orc. I can just put bodily-fluid+weapon together and boom, named.
Oh, him? Yeah, that’s the Orc bartender PissMace.
Id just use a random name sheet. Get some fancy names print em out sprinkle in a little setting specific stuff and roll dice for it. 100 names each and a D100 will do the trick, if its not fitting at all, just roll again.
I just use the MST3K approach: This is Blast Hardcheese.
