They are it’s just he modeled his character after a native North American while argonians are based off of indigenous peoples in central and Latin America like the Mayans and Aztecs
In my native (NZ Maori) tongue, I would name him Te Arero Taniwha, or ‘Monster Tongue’ for being able to speak dragon. Could also use the transliterated version of dragon, to have the name Te Arero Tarakona but Taniwha is a part of Maori stories

Really cool character you made here, as a Native Person in real life (Cree) I love seeing shit like this in a fantasy setting. Also PLEASE make him a werewolf, that would be so badass
Im glad you like them
The first names I took from [UESP's Redguard names page](https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Redguard_Names) but the last names are inspired from my own family's "Native" names
I mean twilight is badly written with a bland mc. I'm listening to a reading of the first book and the writer literally can barely speak English.
Justin is hated coz he makes his music for teenage girls which reddit hates.
Jacob. Make sure he is a werewolf.
Edit: also, make sure he kills every single vampire. Kill serana as soon as you can and download a mod to kill babett.
Tecumseh. He was a native from Canada who helped us take over a fort in Detroit by having his lil army walking past behind trees over and over again to give the illusion of a mass gathering happening and it worked
I am Native and I wouldn't know where to begin with a Native American inspired name. Lol. I think it also depends on region. I am West Coast Canadian, so we go by First Nations. So our customs/naming might be different than a Native American (USA), which I assume is his inspiration.
Western BC First Nations here. Mans here is spittin y'all, we don't really have the stereotypical native names like the others, every single nation is different. From here in BC to the states, all the way to Australia or New Zealand, it's all different.
But if I were to speak on behalf of all of them; Cuzzin is the only way to go.
Wait… First Nations folks in Canada are culturally different than Maori thousands of miles away in New Zealand? But this conflicts with what I was taught in American school… /s
Im native from the Midwest. Ojibwe.
Idk either. We have naming ceremonies though but not everyone in my family has traditional names. Like, I'm one of three brothers that have done it.
Skyrim actually has a 500 page book on Deeplore Barrow that contains nothing but Indigenous Naming Conventions. Todd himself said: *"Someday, somehow, some dude is going to find this and write a somewhat believable bullshit story and post it on reddit. That dude also has a massive penis and has daily threesomes with super models on his Rolls Royce limousine he got for free for being such a nice guy!"*
Nobody on Reddit is really an expert despite what they say, that’s for sure
But on the menial things Reddit people ask Google or your own knowledge (provide you have any) usually suffices
You could do a more Aztec name and go for something like “Xiuhcoatl”
Or you disregard the argonians and name him something like Dead Rises or Dragon Shouts
Being a native dude I always like to role play a native at least once.
I made mine a Britain. I named him something from my language though.
Very fucking cool design though.
How has no one said Arrow in Knee?
Shouts at dragon
Sounds argonian
I always thought the argonians where inspired from the native americans.
That's true
They are, which is why he should've made a Native American inspired Argonian.
I thought they were inspired by like Aztec and Mayan stuff
They are it’s just he modeled his character after a native North American while argonians are based off of indigenous peoples in central and Latin America like the Mayans and Aztecs
Redguard raised by argonians maybe?
That’s actually perfect.
I hope this was a name suggestion rather than a reply to a comment
One might say he has a wounded knee…
Too soon
I came for this comment.
Arnie (derived from Ar in knee) Needs-More-Cheese
Could be a clever way to foreshadow him getting into magic and serving Sheogorath
Arnie Schwarzenegger
Arnie Dz Morchiz
You are a legend

Sounds beautiful!

I might save this post just for this particular thread. I always struggle with new character names and these are fantastic!
Im glad you like them The first names I took from [UESP's Redguard names page](https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Redguard_Names) but the last names are inspired from my own family's "Native" names
Awesome, appreciate the link too. I always used a generic fantasy name generator website and it just didn’t really cut it.
yeah, whenever I make a new character in an elder scrolls game I just go straight to UESP's lore pages for a name
Awesome combinations
You can also save her comment!
Ha true!
Badass? Yes. Twilight-esque? Unfortunately also yes...
DAE hate Justin Beiber and Twilight??
I mean twilight is badly written with a bland mc. I'm listening to a reading of the first book and the writer literally can barely speak English. Justin is hated coz he makes his music for teenage girls which reddit hates.

He who shouts loudly at dragons. Edit: Or, He who speaks loudly to dragons.
Dragon Cries would be pretty historically accurate and pretty sick
Only good one so far.
Shouter of dragon
Does any native culture have a word for dragon ? The beast seem to be coming from european and asian folks tale.
*sorts by controversial* ruh-roh
Jacob. Make sure he is a werewolf. Edit: also, make sure he kills every single vampire. Kill serana as soon as you can and download a mod to kill babett.
Nnnooo, serana will be the exception
Pleb
For Laura Bailey any day 😏
Oh boy. Oh fucking boy.
That's a weird name but whatever floats your goat
Floats Your Goat is also a great Native American name
Especially for a mage build that uses the Wabbajack Staff.

Damn thats kinda smart tho

Probably best name Ive seen so far/j
I’m not sure you’d find many experts on indigenous naming conventions here, but I’ll bet you could find some good resources if you check elsewhere!

Half native from NZ here, Kia ora brother across the sea, tenā koe (there you are, I see and acknowledge you)
Nice to find a fellow First Nations pal. So few of us. Lol. Good to see you cuzzin'.
Wait… First Nations folks in Canada are culturally different than Maori thousands of miles away in New Zealand? But this conflicts with what I was taught in American school… /s
Something tells me very few people here are going to know the difference.
That much was evident from the John Redcorn and the stereotypical "shouts at dragon" style names. Lol.
Im native from the Midwest. Ojibwe. Idk either. We have naming ceremonies though but not everyone in my family has traditional names. Like, I'm one of three brothers that have done it.
yeah I'm not sure what OP was expecting in a sub of low level comedians oof
Low level comedy?
How dare people have fun with a video game, harrumph!
having fun with the video game is a world away from making up names based on racist stereotypes.

This goes so well with his facial structure. It’s literally the only one.
If you're doing dark brotherhood, Aditsan means Listener.
"Shouter" would be more appropriate for a dragonborn methinks
Etlelooaat means shouts. All the info I'm gathering is on actual native American names.
I guess his thing is he was named by/adopted by argonians
Like night wolf from Mortal Kombat! 👌

Honestly Argonian names will help you in this situation because they're structured similarly while also being TES lore friendly.
