    My D&D/PF2e world has at least one naming convention that is a bit unusual. I came up with this before I ever ran a game there, and have used it for the last couple campaigns I’ve run.

    Halfings in my setting use a very specific naming convention. Their first name is always some diminutive form of a common name and their last name is always a compound word which combines an animal and an object.

    Some examples are:

    • Jimmy Horseapple (and his never-seen but often-mentioned cousin Robby Horseapple)
    • Petey Duckwheel
    • Vicky Fishwhistle
