Why is there only one word and no surname?

The pattern is a single given name built from two fragments, so the whole output is one word like "Nadela" or "Rodorer". The free-folk style deliberately drops the house-name half that the noble Westerosi generators carry.

How are the male and female banks different?

Women draw from their own start-and-ending fragment pairs and men from separate pairs, so the two pools differ in texture even though both stay short and plain.

Are these official names from the show or books?

No. They are fan-made names shaped to sound like wildling names, not canon entries. Use them freely for original free-folk characters; they imply no affiliation or official status.

How male free folk names are built

A Free Folk result is a single given name assembled from two fragments, with separate banks per gender. Female names join a 35-entry start to a 35-entry ending, giving picks like "Nadela" and "Rintri"; male names join a 40-entry start to a 40-entry ending, or a 30-entry start to a 30-entry ending, giving "Bosan", "Rodorer" and "Arenild". There is no surname half; the whole name is one short word.

Nadela
Nade + la (female, start plus ending)
Bosan
Bos + an (male, start plus ending)
Rodorer
Rodo + rer (male, start plus ending)

Naming notes

The style sits between rough and plain, with rolled r and nd clusters for women and blunter, two-syllable shapes for men, fitting the wildling tribes beyond the Wall in stories set in the Game of Thrones world. Single-word output makes these read as informal, clan-level names rather than noble ones, so they suit raiders, spearwives, and free-folk characters who would never carry a house name. Shorter picks like "Cani" feel younger; the clustered ones feel weathered.
