I've decided to include a mercenary company made up entirely of women in my next campaign, but I'm struggling to come up for a name for them.

What would you call a woman-only mercenary band?

Is the all-women thing an enforced rule or just happenstance? Former implies a name that proudly states that they're women, while the latter would just have a regular mercenary group name.

Moonlight Riders.

Rooks of Hag's Reach.

Basically, Crows, Moon, Ravens, White deer/stags, and so on are all symbols of the war goddesses and gods/goddesses of women who take no shit from men.

Yeah, those were a thing.

If it's for a ye old fantasy setting, you're basically honor bound to use the word bitch somewhere in the name.

Mercenaries don't get to pick their own names. The world choses for them.

>What would you call a woman-only mercenary band?
Hawt.

But on a non-lewd note, I'd go with something like

The Hellcats
The Blood Lillies
[Insert Captain's Name Here]'s Heroines
The Maneaters
The Warmaids
The Steel Daughters
The Wild Does

The Night Witches. Or just name them what you would call any other company you sperg.
Pick a name based on what they do not what genitals they have.
>>
>>53036431
If you forget the sexual reference The Lesbians would make a good name.

The isle of Lesbos was an isle populated ONLY by females, that's where the name came from.

Also in Anima Beyond fantasy they have a canonical mercenary group formed only by females called Selene.

>The isle of Lesbos was an isle populated ONLY by females, that's where the name came from.
That's not at all true. Lesbos became famous for women because it was the home of the great poet Sappho, the only woman counted among the great nine lyric poets and sometimes called simply 'the Poetess'.

Sir. After I've checked I must apologize. Thanks for make it clear for me.

The [Commander's Name Here] [Battlefield Role Here].
Or
[Unique City or Location of Origin] Irregulars.

They are Mercs so the name will either be by the commander of the company, or if they are like the Hessians by their location of origin followed by the company identifier. Like Irregulars, skirmishers, lancers, ect. Or a Company number.

The Sinister Sirens.

OP have you nailed-down any other details about them besides the whole 00% women thing? I dig it but knowing other things (preferred weaponry, preferred tactic for luring in victims, uniform, how do they go about their banditry, etc) would be useful.
>>
Probably the same thing you'd name any other mercenary band, unless they're expressly calling attention to their gender. Which could work, I suppose - if there's a lot of competing mercenary companies, there's value in the novelty.

In that case, probably something tongue in cheek, like the Stray Cats or mocking, like the Mad Harpies.
