Grimthrid
Meaning & Lore
Dwarf Naming Tradition
Dwarf names pull from Norse and Old Germanic — Tolkien's dwarves have names like Thorin, Fíli, Kíli, all from the Old Norse Dvergatal. The D&D version kept that pattern: short, hard consonants, common endings like '-in', '-or', '-rak', '-dur'.
Clan names matter as much as personal names. A dwarf's name usually tells you their family line and craft heritage.
