Dwarf Clan Names

Dwarf holds are the communities of dwarves, but more than one hold can be related by a kinship of dwarf families called a clan. Often, a clan is named after its leader or founder, but the clan may achieve its own fame and gain a title relevant to their accomplishment. They may also be named after their homeland: their hold, a landmark, or other regional feature; or something historical like a famous battle they won.

For a random name for any dwarf clan, roll a d4 to get a list (1 Table A, 2 Table B, 3 Table C, 4 Table D), then a d12 on the list to get a name, or just browse the lists for a name that strikes your fancy.
