FAQs

Argonian names are traditionally chosen by the Argonians themselves or sometimes granted by the Hist the sentient trees they revere and serve. Unlike other races that might inherit a surname or have names chosen at birth by parents Argonians often adopt or are given names later in life that reflect their personality skills or notable life events.

The common hyphenated English word structure is a translation of their native language Jel and is designed to be descriptive making their identity immediately apparent to others.

In the lore of The Elder Scrolls Argonians generally do not have surnames in the traditional human or elven sense. Their names are usually a single descriptive phrase such as Stands-in-Shadows or Walks-on-Water.

When interacting with other cultures particularly the Imperials some Argonians may adopt a simple single-word name or a surname to fit in more easily but this is a cultural adaptation not a native tradition.

The native language of the Argonians is called Jel. It is an intricate language often described as sounding like a collection of clicks hisses and whistles and is deeply tied to their biological and cultural relationship with the Hist.

The hyphenated English names commonly seen in the games are not the actual Jel words but rather direct functional translations of the concepts the Jel names represent allowing non-Argonian speakers to understand the name’s meaning.
