About halfling names

How halfling names sound

Halfling given names are short and friendly (Milo, Lavinia, Perrin), and family names are cheerful compounds of everyday things: Tealeaf, Goodbarrel, Highhill. The style owes a lot to the hobbits of the Shire.

Family and clan

Halflings value family and hospitality, so a family name often hints at a trade or a home: a Brushgather might gather brushwood; an Underbough lives beneath the trees.
