Anglo-Saxon, Anglo-Saxon Mythology, Old English, Fantasy Barbarian-style Names
Examples: Hrothgar, Wulfstan, Oswine, Leofric, Godiva, Hengist, Larkin, Grimhilt, Thellvorn
Reasoning: The Anglo-Saxon angle encourages more emphasis on the classic fantasy barbarian elements, and stays away from First Nations names. Many of the characters that define this genre have short 2-syllable names (Conan, Korgoth, Thundarr, Fafhrd, Grognak, Sonja, Holga Killgore) that take elements of the Anglo-Saxon/Germanic names where both syllables mean something specific and can be put together in an ad hoc way with other elements – Oswine/Osberg/Osfric/Osric/Oshilde etc.
Surname Options: Generational names that harken to an oral lineage tradition, naming a kinsperson or mentor as their teacher in this way. This does not need to be a parent, and is much more likely to refer to the person who taught the character the most in life.
For example – “Oswine Hengistsdotir”, “Leofric Thellvornskin”, “Hrothgar Larkinson”
