Lich Name Generator Guide: Undead Wizard Names for D&D

Liches in D&D are undead wizards who have cheated death—they need names that sound ancient, sinister, and memorable. The Lich Name Generator helps you create names that fit your archlich, demilich, or necromancer villain.

Lich Naming Conventions

Lich names often combine a personal name (Malachar, Xylos, Necroth) with an epithet (the Eternal, the Bone Lord, the Withered) or a compound (Soulreaver, Boneweaver). Themes include bone, soul, death, ash, and eternity. The result should feel like a name that has been feared for centuries.

Archlich vs. Demilich

Archliches might have more regal or full names (Soulthorn the Lich King). Demiliches, being reduced to a skull, might have fragmentary or spectral names. Use keywords to steer the generator toward the right power level and tone.
