Choose a jianghu hero name with a clear story hook
Start with the personal name, then use the epithet to define one strong angle: a weapon, teacher, oath, region, technique, disguise, reputation, community under protection, or deed remembered by storytellers. Decide who coined the title and whether it is admiring, hostile, official, affectionate, or deliberately misleading. Add a reason the hero travels, an obligation that cannot be ignored, and one person who uses a different name for them. Adapt romanization and cultural details to your setting, research historical context when accuracy matters, and compare final choices with nearby characters before publication.
