Naming your game is like naming a film: the title has to set the genre, the mood and the hook in a couple of words, and it has to be searchable on Steam, itch.io and app stores. Use the generator for title ideas, then use the genre patterns below to sharpen them.

Game title patterns by genre
RPG and fantasy: "[Noun] of [Place]" (Echoes of Varn, Crown of Cinders). Roguelikes: punchy single words (Hades, Balatro) or compounds (Dungeonfall). Cozy games: soft, seasonal words (Hollow Meadow, Teacup Tales). Puzzle: a twist on a mechanic (Mirrorline, Fold). Horror: short, unsettling words (The Quiet House, Hush). Mobile and casual: playful, easy-to-say names (Pop Pals, Jelly Dash).
Before you announce a title
Search Steam, the App Store, Google Play and itch.io for the name. Check that a Steam page or website domain is available. Avoid names identical to big franchises, both for legal reasons and because you will never outrank them in search.
Frequently asked questions
How do I come up with a name for my game?

Should a game title be one word?
Short titles are memorable but hard to search. Many indie games use a short main title plus a subtitle on the store page.
Are these game names free?
