Naming Things Is Hard, but on Rare Occasions the Robot Will Make Me Laugh a Little
I was writing some fiction for fun. Coming up with names is always a challenge for me, and it interrupts my flow especially when the name is just a mention in a passage I otherwise am ready to spill onto the page. So yes, I turned to my LLM robot friend.
I asked: “What’s a good name for a masculine but dumb millennial? Like a rich, entitled frat bro who’s in their 30s.” (Apologies in advance if your name appears in its lists.)
It replied:
Here are some fun and fitting name ideas for a masculine, dumb-but-entitled millennial — think fratty energy, trust fund vibes, slightly behind on emotional development:
🧃 First Names (Peak Frat Bro)
These lean classic, vaguely upper-middle-class, and maybe a little too confident:
Chad – The classic. You know what it is.
Tanner – Tan. Buff. Always vaping.
Bryce – Sounds like someone who overuses “bro” and owns NFTs.
Trey – Probably the third. Probably drinks Red Bull at weddings.
Blake – Confident and deeply confused.
Brad – Slightly washed, clings to his college glory days.
Brody – Lives at a permanent 15° backward tilt.
Logan – Thinks he’s deep now that he read The Alchemist .
Hunter – Wears salmon-colored shorts unironically.
Zane – Spiked seltzer personified.
