Exo Name Generator

How exo names are built

The simplest builder in the set: a single 212-entry word bank with one pattern, the word followed by a hyphen. Every result is one curated word followed by a trailing hyphen, mimicking the way these machine minds carry a designation that reads like a unit name awaiting a number.

• Fragment-

  pattern: one word from the bank plus a trailing hyphen + single-bank pull + fixed hyphen

• Gladius-

  pattern: one word from the bank plus a trailing hyphen + single-bank pull + fixed hyphen

• Templar-

  pattern: one word from the bank plus a trailing hyphen + single-bank pull + fixed hyphen

Naming notes

Because the trailing hyphen is fixed, each pull (Fragment-, Gladius-, Templar-) looks like a serial designation cut off mid-string, which is the intended effect. Treat the hyphen as a slot you can fill: append a number or letter (Gladius-7) for original robotic characters, AI units, or constructs. The word bank itself leans toward weighty single nouns, useful as codenames in any hard sci-fi setting.

Questions about exo names

Why does every name end in a hyphen?

The single pattern is one bank word plus a hyphen, so the trailing hyphen is hard-coded. It signals an open slot, as if a unit number should follow the word designation.

Can I make a complete name from this?

Add your own suffix after the hyphen. The generator gives the word stem (Gladius-) and leaves you to append a number or tag, which matches how these designations read.

Are these official Exo names?

No. They are fan-made designations in that machine-mind style. The word bank emulates the format; it does not reproduce specific named units from the games.
