    A guide to the sound

    How Genasi names work

    Genasi naming customs reflect dual heritages: mortal parentage and planar manifestations. Many genasi are born to ordinary human families and receive mortal birth names, but as adolescence reveals their elemental sparks, they adopt descriptive planar monikers or Primordial root titles.

    The three styles presented here cover primary elemental manifestations. Fire genasi use crackling percussives and flickering vowels like Ash-, Cind-, and -rax, invoking volcanic heat. Water genasi employ fluid, rushing cadences and soft sibilants like Casc-, Marin-, and -ria, echoing oceanic tides. Air and earth genasi combine breezy gales with resonant granite roots like Zeph-, Gale-, and -quarr, reflecting swirling winds and steadfast stone.

    Genasi frequently adopt elemental surnames or planar epithets, such as Cinder Heart, Tide Walker, Zephyr Wind, Stone Pillar, Ember Spark, Ocean Depths, Gale Runner, or Granite Brow. These titles celebrate their living planar connection.
