How do y'all make up "fantasy names?"

[Aysegulyildiz@]

How do y'all make up "fantasy names?" like seriously. Some sounds cool and some ends up being too goofy.
Mind you, I'm NEW to the fantasy world, so I just do normal names.
I write medieval romance/fiction. So, most of my words are of Latin origin--yet they aren't as "Magical" or doesn't really give of that vibe.
So, if anyone has any suggestions, would love to hear it!

My method usually produces a name fairly quickly for me.

I want the names in my story to sound like they have a cultural aspect to them. The easy way to do this was to decide the main culture would have french sounding names, and the another would have Scandinavian ones. But I went further and made some of my own personal rules for it. So, one nation has mostly hard sounds, and another makes heavy use of the vowel U.

When I am stuck, I just go to a name generator and look at some till my brain can morph some of it into something I might use.

For all the main characters, I have names that I spent some effort on. For the minor characters, I might use the name generator ones (with small changes).

I like this one:

Sounds complex, but thats how I do it.
