The Outer Worlds Name Generator below is designed to help you imagine names for distant planets, moons, and galaxies — places that exist beyond the edge of the known universe. It’s perfect for writers, gamers, and creators who want their fictional worlds to feel vast, mysterious, and alive.

Creating Worlds That Feel Real

A name can make a world feel believable. Think of Pandora, Tatooine, or Vulcan — simple yet powerful names that instantly paint a picture of strange skies and faraway suns. The Outer Worlds Name Generator follows that same idea, offering names that sound natural, otherworldly, and full of possibility.

Blending Science and Imagination

The generator goes beyond just creating names — it builds believable worlds inspired by real astronomy and creative worldbuilding. It includes seven world categories, each representing a different type of exoplanet or celestial body:

• Terrestrial Worlds – Earth-like planets with solid surfaces and familiar landscapes.
• Gas Giants – Massive, swirling worlds like Jupiter and Saturn.
• Ice Worlds – Frozen planets and moons locked in eternal frost.
• Ocean Worlds – Planets covered in deep, endless seas.
• Desert Worlds – Arid, wind-swept planets under blazing suns.
• Lava Worlds – Fiery volcanic planets alive with molten rock.
• Jungle Worlds – Lush, vibrant planets teeming with dense forests and alien life.

Each world type generates names that fit its unique nature, with creative structures that sound true to its environment — from soft, fluid tones for ocean worlds to harsh, angular names for desert or lava planets.

Alongside each name, the generator also provides world classifications like Super-Earth or Hot Jupiter, and a short descriptive text that brings the planet to life — explaining its atmosphere, terrain, and mood. This blend of scientific inspiration and storytelling detail helps every world feel both plausible and full of wonder.

Designed for Storytellers and Dreamers

Whether you’re building a sci-fi universe, creating a space game, or naming planets in a story, the generator gives you endless inspiration. You can find names that fit icy moons, desert planets, glowing nebulae, or bustling alien civilizations. It’s a simple tool that opens the door to limitless imagination.
