No, but great idea. I did a simple dice table one for my commanche; just pairing random verbs and adjectives on one line with nouns on the other."running,noisy,red etc" against "sky, mountain, animal" worked quite well. Not much use for gettin a name for the grumpy old coot who runs the livery stable though. |

I started a dice-driven male name generator a while back. I just dug it out and realized that I need some cool nick names to finish it. If you're interested in the unfinished beta charts, PM me your email address and I'll send it to you. |
