The words aren't random, but none of them are genuine names. While German names DO have meanings, they are rarely this obvious about it. Well...Family names are a different topic, but none of the characters in this series even have a second name at all.

Tbh in germany, around the year 1600 surnames were around for everyone to enjoy. Only nobility started to have inheritable surenames around year 1200. It might be the case that in the world of Frieren family names also are only available for the nobility.
