What makes a Warhammer 40k name?

Names in the 41st millennium are gothic, grand, and grimdark — a fusion of Latin, archaic European, and Imperial pomp (Ciaphas, Macharius, Severina, Ravensburg). Imperial citizens, commissars, and nobles carry weighty, devout-sounding names befitting a galaxy of endless war and zealotry. The vibe is solemn grandeur shot through with dread.
