Tiefling Names – Background & Tips

Tieflings are one of the most popular races in D&D 5e – and their naming is uniquely complex. Our Tiefling Name Generator helps you find the perfect infernal or virtuous name. Tieflings descend from humans who made pacts with devils and carry this infernal nature within them.

Tiefling names follow two main traditions: first, infernal names derived from the language of devils with Latin or ancient Greek roots – like Amnon, Barakas, Leucis or Malachar. Second, virtue names, where tieflings choose a concept as their name: Hope, Grace, Wrath, Fortune, Torment or Triumph – to distance themselves from or embrace their dark heritage.

In D&D 5e, tieflings have special abilities through their infernal lineage. Famous tiefling characters include Farideh and Havilar from the Forgotten Realms, the tiefling companion in Baldur's Gate 3, or Lorcan the Cambion. Each of these characters embodies the tension between human heritage and infernal legacy.

The name chosen says much about a tiefling character's personality. Bearing a devilish name proudly shows acceptance of their nature. Choosing a virtue name suggests a struggle against their heritage. This decision is one of the first important characterizations when creating a tiefling character for D&D, Pathfinder or other systems.

For worldbuilding and fantasy novels, tieflings offer particularly rich character depth. Their name, their origins and the struggle for acceptance in a suspicious world make them fascinating protagonists. Use our generator for male and female tiefling names and classic infernal variants.
