Kitsune names - Pathfinder

This name generator will give you 10 random names fit for the kitsune part of the Pathfinder universe.

Kitsune are shapeshifters and have two forms, though the second can be one of two possible forms. The first form is that of a humanoid fox with an amount of tails equal to how well they've mastered their magical abilities. The second form is either than of a regular fox for those living in more secluded areas, or a humanoid form of whichever society they live in. This could be an elven form, human form, etc., without any vulpine features. This latter form is called a tailless form.
Kitsune are very rare, so much so that an individual kitsune could go their entire life without seeing another their own family. But when they do encounter each other, they enjoy trying to outwit each other by trying to trick the other into giving away they are in fact not just who they portray themselves to be through their tailless form. This has to be done subtly though, as it's disgraceful to simply out one another.

Kitsune names in their tailless form are those of whichever form they've taken, while their full fox forms generally have no name. Their kitsune forms usually have Japanese and Chinese inspired names, with the examples names from the books being: Hamako, Haohiko, Kitsukou, Kon, Kwan-la, Talaro. This name generator follows the same conventions.
