Kingdom Name Generator

How these kingdom names are built

Realm names in fantasy follow the pattern of real ones: a root plus a land-ending. -ia (land of) is the commonest, as in the real world; -mar (sea-land), -gard (guarded land), -heim (homeland), -mark (border land) and -reach (far land) each say something about geography, and -oria (golden land) about wealth. This generator builds a two- or three-syllable root from an invented royal register and adds one of eleven glossed endings.

The polity in front tells you how it is governed, and the hint tells you what that implies: a March is a border lordship, a League is allied cities, a Dominion rules other peoples. Empires and duchies use the same root grammar, so a duchy can plausibly become a kingdom in your history.

Descriptive names (the Sundered Realm, the Twilight Marches) are what the neighbours call a place, and are good for realms in decline or after a war.
