Vampires have always been fantastical creatures of wonder. The concept of a vampire has been around long before Bram Stoker Penned his famous Dracula novel. There have always been ancient legends of mysterious immortal beings who feed on the living and strike fear into the heart of even the bravest of men.
What was once the fear of ancestors has become the fascination of people today. Vampires are an incredibly popular fantastical being when it comes to being portrayed in literature and in film. Bram Stoker’s Dracula has been adapted for the silver screen time and again. Newer writers have made them an easy target for protagonists looking to save the day. And even more modern writers have made them the lead characters of their stories, as in the case of Blade, The Vampire Chronicles, and the Twilight Franchise.
If you’re looking for the perfect name for a vampiric character who will either be the protagonist or antagonist of your story, you’ve come to the right place. Below are various names for vampires that have either been used before or mean something related to vampires such as darkness, blood, and moonlight.
