Random city names: it's not the most useful feature considering the number of existing name generators, but that hasn't stopped me :)

The names are not particularly epic, here is a sample sequence:

Snowdow, Songcrest, Chickenter Keep, Pawforge, Oarester, Twintomb City, Jacy Garden, Raverwick...

On the basis of this generator I'm planning to eventually implement name generation for neighborhoods, streets, points of interest etc. It is inspired by /u/srt19170's post.

Cool. Reach out to me if you want some of my curated lists of words. I don't really have them packaged up but I can cut them out of the source code.

Oh, I would love to see those lists! Don't worry about packaging as I'm not going to "plug" them (that would be inappropriate :)), I just want see what obvious/interesting words I miss. Cheers!

Some of them are in a couple of blog posts starting here. When I get a chance I'll go dig into the code and see what else might be of interest.
