- Names are Power. Meaning. Intention.
In the Grimdark world of Warhammer 40k, the citizens of the Imperium, and the galaxy at large, understand the importance. But do we, as fans of the lore understand why the brilliant minds behind Black Library have chosen the titles, characters and locations that they did?
While Warhammer may be littered with references and names to real-world individuals and events, here are just 9 of my absolute favourite examples of the Origins of Names within Warhammer 40k.

Just found your channel, will check it out.
You're welcome to it anytime you're ready - it's not going anywhere 😊
NO really, don't hold back....How do you really feel about Erebus?
Really enjoy your work
Was I too subtle? 😅
The actual inspiration for _Big Dick Bobby G_ was a famous french General or ambassador for the UN maybe?
I forget his name. Robert something.
Anyway, he was a very good logistician. Hence, why the name of the Ultramarine Primarch
Oh aye? I couldn't find anything about that - I'll take another look! At least I got the French part correct! 😅
First time seeing your channel, your thumbnails look really good!
Thank you! I wish I had my partner's talent though - I'm not half the artist they are!
Loved it!
Thank you!
Excellent video
Thank you! Apologies for the hiatus, but I'll be back writing and uploading ASAP!
I always liked Abbadons and horuses names especially if you know the history of the wolf hut in Rome the lupine clay house inside the inner city called the luprical .i love peter turbo lol and fabulous Bill too hanaha!
A lot of the places and names also coincide with satanic/occult holy days...ie; "Lupercalia" ...fitting for the traitors who turned to the warp and all its "daemons"
