- how do you name your Monsters, races, and items?
- Any APIs or other sources for in-game character name/location etc generation?

I wanna suggest a useful ad-free resource for game characters naming. It contains lots of unusual names with full info about them (years and country of origin, meaning, etymology, etc.), as well as lists of Knights Templar names, Oldest European names, various centuries names, etc.
I just implemented in my toolkit a Markov chain Name generator like this in python but I was thinking:

Procedural generator for names for anything
When first posted about my generator, I've been told that there is MarkovNameGenerator by Tw1ddle on GitHub: https://github.com/Tw1ddle/MarkovNameGenerator. Well, thinking about it, I'd still made my own generator, because procedural generation is so much fun :) In the pros of my generator is that it's a tiny js file, however, you'll need to feed it with learning samples, while Tw1ddle's one has a great variety of learning samples pre-gathered and multiple work modes.

Markov Namegen - Procedural Name Generator using a Markov Process
I compiled most of the datasets from Wikipedia list-of-* articles over the years. A few were also sent to me by people asking for them to be added.
Updated my procedural name generator and web demo. It now has more settings for combining the preset word lists.

Procedural Name Generation using a Markov Process - web demo
The code is free and open source, written in Haxe. If anyone is interested then the code should work with all Haxe targets. There are also Python and C# ports of the generator, linked in the repo readme.
