    For us, the opposite happened

    The DM had a list of names but forgot to delete one and reused it 10 sessions later

    Turns out the old noble is the grandpa of the guard drinking at the tavern, and therefore, they share their name

      Nah, do what Adventure is Nigh did. The first NPC they met was Jeremy Goodsex, and when a guard yelled at another guard, he used the name Jeremy. He then argued that it’s a very common name, and lots of people are called Jeremy.

      So for every NPC in season 1, about a quarter had the name Jeremy. It’s a very common name.
