Planet Name Generator

  • Click the button to generate 10 new planet names!

👋 Welcome to our free Planet Name Generator tool!

This simple utility helps you generate unique planet names for your stories, games, or creative projects. Whether you’re a sci-fi author looking for inspiration or a game developer populating your virtual universe, our tool can assist you in crafting planet names that sound intriguing and original.

How does our planet name generator work?

When you click the “Generate 10 Random Planet Names!” button, the tool employs an algorithmic approach to create planet names.

It combines consonants, vowels, diagraphs, and sometimes additional designations in a random yet phonetically plausible manner. This results in names that are both distinctive and engaging, perfect for alien worlds.

We also append interesting additions you might expect like roman numerals, numbers, letters, and labels like Alpha or Prime. Sometimes we output a second word in the planet name.

Each click on the button produces 10 new and entirely unique planet names.

How long are the generated names?

The generated planet names can vary in length, ranging from 1-5 syllables. Here are some examples:

Short planet names might look like: Ki, Ku Prime, Sapu

Medium planet names might be: Tatuko, Tuzibe, Cureno 9

Longer planet names could be: Viwomaxa D, Fabukudu, Tiyasehu

Why are these names better than normal names?

With our algorithmic approach to planet name generation, you can break out of the patterns that show up with names from specific cultures or regions.

Normal Earth names are great, too! But for alien worlds, you might want something that sounds a bit more… otherworldly.

Do these names work for other stuff, like characters or places?

Absolutely!

Phuequy Delta is a pretty cool name for a city, a space station, or maybe a robot..

For character names, though, you might want something a bit more personal. Check out our Character Name Generator for more tailored options.

Whether you need names for distant worlds, space stations, or any other celestial bodies in your creative endeavors, this tool can provide you with endless inspiration.

Feel free to use the generated names as they are or modify them to better suit your narrative or game world.
