Generate authentic Australian names for stories or characters. Free, fast, and customizable—perfect for writers and creators.
Australian naming practices have been significantly influenced by European ones, and especially by Britain. They also reflect the cultural diversity of modern Australia.
Australian names generally use the Western name pattern of a first/given name, with the family/surname coming after. Middle names are common but tend not to be used in everyday contexts.
Australians are famous for coming up with particularly creative nicknames, which can be based on someone’s name (like Shazza for Sharon).
Australian Aboriginal peoples and Torres Strait Islander peoples have different approaches to naming, which vary from group to group. Doing further research would be a good idea if this is likely to be relevant for your story.
Let’s look at some typical examples from literary history:
Jack Lawson
Ruby Thompson
Lachlan Reid
Matilda Connors
Ethan Kelly
Isla McKenzie
Cooper Wallace
Zoe Armstrong
