What is the lowercase word with the apostrophe in centaur names?

It is a short clan or parent token, built from the same letter-banks as the given name, that marks lineage. The full shape reads 'Name, lineage's Role', so the centaur is identified by both who they descend from and what they do.

Are these official centaur names?

No. They are fan-made names in that centaur style. The stems are coined from phonetic banks and the role words are a generic nature-craft list, so none are drawn from any official source.

How do I tell a male and female centaur name apart?

Feminine results use the shorter syllable pattern; masculine results use the longer stems, sometimes with an extra syllable. Both still end in the possessive role clause.

How male centaur names are built

Centaur results are gendered and end in a possessive epithet. A given name is built either from a shorter feminine syllable alternation or a longer masculine stem with optional cluster, varied endings, and sometimes an extra extension. It is followed by a lowercase clan or parent token built from the same masculine stem banks, an apostrophe-s, and a compound role word from a 61-entry bank.

Hihy, zelin's Hoofsinger
Hihy (feminine stem: h + i + h + y) + zelin (clan token), 's, Hoofsinger (role)
Jamovos, zayax's Cliffleaper
Jamovos (masculine stem with cluster) + zayax (clan token), 's, Cliffleaper (role)
Cilane, cadul's Glademinder
Cilane (masculine stem with extension) + cadul (clan token), 's, Glademinder (role)

Naming notes

The signature is the possessive: 'Name, clan's Role'. The role bank is nature-and-craft flavored (Cliffleaper, Hoofsinger, Glademinder, Leafreader, Yewbender), which anchors the herd-and-forest feel. The lowercase clan token stays short and reads like a lineage marker. Use the feminine short stems and masculine longer stems to signal gender, and swap the role word to give a centaur a vocation. Good for tabletop herd NPCs or original woodland-cavalry characters in this style.
