About vampire names

Why vampire names sound Eastern European

Bram Stoker set Dracula in Transylvania and based the name on Vlad III Drăculea; Strahd von Zarovich and most screen vampires followed. Slavic and Latin endings such as -imir, -ius and -ika, with a dark house name, still read as "vampire" to most players.

Bloodlines

Vampires in fiction care about who turned them. A house name gives an instant faction for intrigue: the Ravencrests hate the Gravewoods, and your player's sire belongs to one of them.
