About cosmic names
Moons and constellations supply the raw material, so a soft classical pick like "Amalthea" sits beside the blunt "Crux" and the star-system genitive "Eridani". Length varies enough to cover a cat, a starship AI, and a space opera heroine from the same list. Choose the Latin genitive forms for hard science fiction and the mythic moon names for gentler stories.
How cosmic names are built
This set is single-token and pulls one whole entry per result from two gender-tagged banks: 127 entries in the male bank and 133 in the female bank. There is no surname slot, so a male draw returns Albaldah or Alshain and a female draw returns Spica.

Spica

Naming notes
Each pattern returns one stored bank entry with no joining or second element. The two banks split the set by gender tag only; structurally both behave the same single-word way. Because every result is one evocative word, the set fits ships, characters, or places that should read as a label rather than an ordinary personal name.
Questions about cosmic names
- How is each result built?
- Each pattern draws one complete entry from a single bank, with no second element, so the value you see is one stored word.
- How are the banks split?
- Two gender-tagged banks feed the set: 127 entries in the male bank and 133 in the female bank. The split is by tag; both banks return one word per draw.
- Are these meant as people's names?
- They are single words rather than given-name-plus-surname pairs, so they suit ships, places, or characters that should carry a one-word label.
