About translating names to Proto-Indo-European

Translating a name into Proto-Indo-European is a small act with a big effect — it gives the name a new texture, a different history, and the feel of something rooted in another world. That's why people use it for tattoos, gifts, character names, and family heirlooms.

Just type a name and the translator handles the rest. Output is shareable, downloadable as a card, and free of charge.

Common use cases

  • Family mottoes and crests
  • Memorials and inscriptions
  • Wedding invitations and place cards
  • Tattoos and engravings
  • Personalised gifts and dedications
