๐Ÿ–ผ๏ธ Photos

Add pictures of people, pets or things. Each photo takes its file's name (ava.jpg becomes "Ava") and appears in every game. Photos stay on this device and are not in share links.

    Tip: start a name with an emoji, like ๐Ÿ• Pizza, for a picture without a photo.

      Ways to use this list

      • Map making: draw the coastline first, then spin three kingdoms and a capital city for each, and let the names suggest mountains, lakes or marshes.
      • Campaign prep: the heroes' homeland, the rival kingdom and the distant empire can each come from a different button above, in a single minute.
      • Design-a-game projects: children inventing their own board game can name every territory on the board with one spin each.
      • History lessons: after studying real kingdoms, pupils invent one of their own: spin a name, then decide its ruler, crest, motto and main trade.

      Press Spin the wheel, tap the game or press the Space bar. Change the list in the box as you like: add your own, delete what doesn't suit you, or write *2 after an entry to give it double the chance. The game buttons switch the same list to a duck race, hat, claw machine and more.

      Questions people ask

      What is the difference between a kingdom, a realm and an empire?

      A kingdom is ruled by a king or queen. Realm is a looser word for any land under one ruler. An empire usually joins many peoples or kingdoms under a single emperor or empress.

      How do I make a fantasy kingdom name sound believable?

      Old place names often come from landscape words: -mere for a lake, -moor for open upland, -march for a border land. Join one to a sound you like, as in Highmere or Kelmarch, and the name feels lived in.

      Do you have names for smaller towns and villages?

      Yes: the town name generator has fantasy villages plus made-up towns in UK, US and Australian styles, for the places between your cities.

      Are these names taken from existing fantasy maps?

      No. They were invented for this page, and anything that echoed a famous book or game was dropped. Add your own lands to the list; your edits stay on this device for this page.

      What other kinds of lands can go on a fantasy map?

      History offers plenty: a duchy is ruled by a duke or duchess, a principality by a prince, an earldom by an earl, and a republic by leaders the people choose. A map with a mix of them feels more real than one covered in kingdoms.
