The random name generators featured in Warsim: The Realm of Aslona include many different Welsh or Welsh-inspired names. A small selection includes the following: Afan, Aneirin, Angwyn, Arfon, Bleddyn, Bronwen, Bryn, Brynmor, Cadwaladr, Caerwyn, Caryl, Ceredig, Cledwyn, Ddraig, Derwyn, Dewydd, Gwyddion, Gwynn, Heledd, Huw, Idwal, and Wyn.
It is possible for a kingdom to generate “Brenin” as the title for their leader, which is the Welsh word for “king”.
There is also a small reference to the Welsh Dragon. When the main antagonist is asked where he is from, the dialogue states: “Far away, where red dragons blow in the wind.”
