Barbarian Naming Customs
Barbarian names vary greatly across different tribes and regions. Northern barbarians might have names inspired by harsh winters and survival, while jungle barbarians could have names reflecting the verdant wilderness. Many barbarian cultures practice naming ceremonies where individuals earn their adult names through trials or visions. Names often tell stories - of battles won, beasts slain, or spirits encountered. Some barbarians carry names passed down through generations, while others forge entirely new identities. The strongest warriors might be known by deeds rather than birth names.
