Kojima Name Generator

Based on Brian David Gilbert's Kojima Name Generator PDF. Made by kokkonisd.


Section 1: Determining How Many Names You Have

Kojima often creates characters that have many alternate names, so we must first figure out how many names you will have.

Roll a d6. If you get 1-5, you have 1 name, otherwise you have 1 name plus 6 other alternate names.

Section 2: Personal Information

Kojima's characters have names that are directly related to their own character traits. This information will make sure your name fits your personality.

Section 3: Kojima Information

Kojima character names reflect his own idiosyncrasies. He can't help himself.

Section 4: Determining Your Name Conditions

Sometimes, a character will have a plot-based condition that affects their name. You, too, might have a condition that affects your name. Conditions can stack.

THE -MAN CONDITION: Roll a d4. If you get 1-3, you do not have this condtion. If you get 4, your last name will include the suffix -man. If your name already has -man at the end of it, I guess you're just going to have -manman at the end of your name.

THE CONDITION CONDITION: Roll a d8. If you get 1-5, you do not have this condition. If you get 6, you're big; your name must have "Big" at the beginning of it. If you get 7, you are older than you once were; your name must have "Old" at the beginning of it. If you get 8, you are how you currently are.

THE CLONE CONDITION: Roll a d12. If you get 1-11, you do not have this condition. If you get 12, you are a clone of someone else, or you have been brainwashed into becoming a mental doppelganger of someone else. Find someone who has completed this form and replace 50% of your Kojima name with 50% of their Kojima name.

THE KOJIMA CONDITION: Roll a d100. If you get 1-68 or 70-100, you do not have this condition. If you get 69, oh no. You are Hideo Kojima. Hideo Kojima created you and is also you. You are the man who created himself and there is nothing you can do about it. You're in Kojima's world—your world—and that's just the breaks, pal. Stop filling in this form now. You're Hideo Kojima. Go do the things that Hideo Kojima does.

Make sure you've filled in everything and rolled all the dice.
