About selonian names
Brisk two-letter results like "Che", "Za", and "Ka" sound made for echoing down a tunnel, quick enough to pass between den mates mid-sprint. Treat each as a personal syllable and add a den name after it when writing Corellian-sector scenes in a Star Wars inspired campaign. Reuse a first letter across a litter to signal siblings.
How selonian names are built
Each Selonian name is a single synthesized word with no surname, assembled by the syllable engine from an onset bank of thirteen and a very small continuation bank of four. An onset fragment opens the word and one or more continuation fragments close it, so a short result like Vara and a longer one like Chorendo come from the same two banks. Because the engine never adds a family part, every output is one whole given word.
Fanener
Fanener (onset + continuation fragments via the syllable engine)
Vara
Vara (onset + continuation fragments via the syllable engine)
Menera
Menera (onset + continuation fragments via the syllable engine)
Naming notes
The banks favour soft n/r sounds with open vowels (Fanener, Vara, Ranane, Menera), giving a gentle, repetitive cadence with no surname attached. Length shifts only by how many continuation fragments the engine chains, never by gender, since this generator is gender-neutral. Use these as single given names for original characters in fan fiction or tabletop play styled after this Star Wars species.
Questions about selonian names
- Why are Selonian names a single word with no surname?
- Just a given name. The Selonian builder seeds from one of 13 onsets and adds continuation fragments; there is no second bank for a family name.
- Do Selonian names change shape by gender?
- No. The Selonian builder treats names as gender-neutral, varying results purely by chained continuation count.
- Are these official Selonian names?
- No. These Selonian names are fan-made coinages in that phonetic style, meant for original characters rather than canon.
