RP Names for Tauren



Lore appropriate RP names for Tauren Characters

Here is a note from Wowwiki regarding Tauren names:

The last name of a tauren is usually a family name, handed down through the generations. If the tauren has performed some act that has made an impression on the elders of his tribe, however, he may choose to take on his own last name to commemorate that act. Tauren have several names. They receive a name at birth and another during a ceremony to celebrate reaching adulthood. This adult name describes some event in their lives or some notable individual characteristic: for instance, Blackhide, Earthborn, Halfhorn, Hidemaker, Riverwatcher, Scar, Splithoof, Stormchaser, or Windrunner. A tauren may also acquire a third name that he uses when dealing with outsiders.
Tauren names are largely based on spiritualism and symbology.  They are very similar to Native American names, which is a good way to brainstorm names for your Tauren should you need to.

Here is a list of names I have created and found for use with Tauren.
