Beorhelm
Gordan Flame-Spitter

Some I just quickly made
Hjorlf Troll-Washer
Bjormur Bear-Skinner
H?fnar Half-Dead
Siegfel

Or you may even use old Scandinavic names such like
Runfast
Fastrid
Harald
Eric

Search for old Norse or Scandinavian names

Nord names seem to follow some sort of convention where you have a first name and then either a clan name or a nickname.

First names, well, they could well be old Saxon.
Say you want a physically imposing character, anything with "bjorn" (bear) in it works. Thorbjorn, for instance.
If you have some sort of affinity towards wolves, which is hard in Skyrim, "ulf", "ulv" or "olv" would indicate "wolf". Brynjolv, for instance, but it's taken, right? So Vraedulv, maybe? Angered Wolf.

Otherwise, it seems like just adding a silent "h" and an "r" in front of almost any other name "nordifies" it. Hrafn is a decent nord(ish) name. In old Norse it would mean raven.

Clan names are easier, since they are in English. Since my Nord's backstory is as a miner, his nickname is Iron-Breaker. No clan name.

You have all what you need on the UESP wiki: http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Nord_Names

Volvo the ever lasting.
Saab the broke.
Ikea the ever trading.

I like using names from old norse gods. Nidhogg, Fafnir, Fenrir, Odin, etc

This, + this TES http://tamriel-rebuilt.org/?p=modding_data/ngen.

The typical Nord names are all of Norse origins. Since I live in Sweden, I can give you some examples:

Anders
Hakon (or H?kan)
Bjorn
Torbjorn
Gunnar
Olof
Sven
Ragnar
Nils

or if you want, you can take inspiration from another Scandinavian dragon slaying legend: Beowulf

XD That made me laugh..
(swede here)

Sorry for my over stereotyping your nation, it is actually on my list of places I MUST visit.

I Actually love stereotypes in some way x) Like the swedish chef from the muppets. And i guess i talk to much off topic now. And if you are going to visit sweden,Visit the north! in the winter.

I almost named my last Nord character Sigyn Fafnesbane, after the mythological dragonslayer Sigurd Fafnesbane (Fafner is a dragon) but in the end I skipped the last name. Sigyn is a Norse goddess.

Not all Nords have names of Norse or Germanic origin, though. Lisbet, for instance, is a Swedish form of Elizabeth. Or Lydia, that's a Greek name.


Hall? d?r!

Go for a Scandinavian first name and then a surname like Storm-cloak, law-giver, Battle-born, Gray-Mane, Silver-blood etc

Or you could simply Google it.

My latest Nord male is named Hasselblad the Obsolete...

What? Why are you staring at me?

Hey, it beats Gevalia the Bitter (which may be my next Nord female character, now that I say it aloud)

I used my ancestors names as I am norwegian. Thoralf, Olaf, Jens, Hans, Alf, Rolf and Odne. Combine these for example with awesome titles like: Stone-crusher, Iron-foot, Hard-axe, Sword-born.

Nokia the Unbreakable.

If you like werewolves than you would love the name "Fenrir" or "Fenrus". It's a real Nordic monster that is said to destroy the world in the apocalypse. My Nord is called "Fenrir the Wolf.

yea sorry bout that left it kinda vague, Hes a male Nord using heavy armor sword and shield combo, runs with the companions and is part of the rebelion.

Alfhild The Light-Hearted... my Nord
