Some would consider these caveman names, but it depends entirely on the context, especially considering the names in this generator are fictional. The names of human species are usually either characteristic describing or place describing. For example, Homo sapiens means wise man, Homo erectus means upright man and Homo neanderthalensis is named after the Neandertal valley in Germany. In this generator I focused purely on the ability or aspect describing names, and I have included a translation in brackets behind each name. The term Homo means man or human, which you could replace with any other name for any other species to effectively get the same kind of species names, but for other types of species instead. For example, Canis sapiens would mean wise dog.
