Elf Naming Tradition

Tolkien's Sindarin and Quenya are ground zero for elf names. D&D took the same blueprint — flowing vowels, soft consonants, compound words built from nature and light. Common patterns: 'ael-', 'cael-', endings like '-ir', '-iel', '-nor', '-thir'.

High Elf names lean poetic and elongated. Wood Elf names are shorter, sharper. Drow names harden the consonants and drop the vowel clusters.
