Overview

Daedric Names is a NND-based mod that give appropriate names to unnamed Atronachs, Dremora, Dark Seducers and Golden Saints.

According to the lore:

Daedra are creatures and sentient beings that can be found across the vast expanses of Oblivion.

And are known to use names. As such, Daedric Names gives names to all otherwise unnamed and generic Daedra that you encounter in Skyrim.

Similarly to my other NND mods, Daedric Names tries to be as close to the lore as possible and avoid name generators, but due to the lack of existing lore names relies on semi-generated names for Atronachs.


Atronachs

Elemental Daedra, commonly known as Atronachs, are highly intelligent daedra often summoned by conjurers.

First named Atronachs appear in Morrowind (Nomeg Gwai, Zedias-soko), and become more common in ESO. They usually have Daedric names with a prefix that reflects their element. These prefixes are as follows:

• Nomeg - Frost
• Magdra - Flame
• Zynel - Storm
• Mynar - Iron
  

Rarely, Atronachs adopt unique non-Daedric names, like Blaze or Brimstone.

So that's exactly how Daedric Names creates names for Atronachs. The lore has much more Daedric names than exact Atronach names, so by utilizing those names with prefixes, we can get plenty of Atronach names that are based on the lore. There is also a small chance that you encounter an Atronach with unique name.

Here are some examples:

• Magdra Macharus
• Nomeg Tigun
• Zynel Ozata
  

Dremora

Dremora (also known as "The Kyn") are a warlike Daedric race. They consider themselves to be above other Daedra.

Though Dremora is related to Daedra, they have distinctive names. Daedric Names gives Dremora around 140 lore names.


Dark Seducers and Golden Saints

Dark Seducers, also known as the Mazken, are scantily-clad, humanoid Daedra that use dark serpentine-themed armor and weapons.

Golden Saints, also called the Aureal, are a haughty, golden-skinned race of Daedra in service to Sheogorath.

There are no special naming features for either Dark Seducers or Golden Saints, so Daedric Names gives them around 240 common Daedric names that can be found in the lore.
