I usually take a language or languages I want to use as a theme, translate words and then remove letters or move things around until they sound neat enough.
They get so jumbled, I don’t even know what words they came from anymore. For my most recent setting I came up with two kingdom names as Adeya and Coridia. Original they had big long Icelandic names describing where they were, and then I cut out letters, introduced new words, cut it down and so on until it became completely unrecognizable.
