Fantasy names often signal something about a character before they say a word. Hard consonants and short, clipped syllables read as warrior-like or intimidating. Flowing vowels and softer sounds read as mystical or elegant. Longer, more formal names suggest nobility, and names built from elemental roots suit characters tied to nature or magic. None of this is a strict rule, but it's a useful starting point.
