Quick Links

In Stardew Valley, you inherit an old farm from your recently deceased grandfather and move there to get away from the humdrum life of the city. As part of the character creation process, you get to give your farm its own name!

Unfortunately, you're not always feeling creative when you go to make a new file. You may need a bit of inspiration. That's where we come in! This article covers lots of suggestions for what to name your new farm, divided by the tips you can use to come up with your own name if you don't like any of ours.

Your farm's name is limited to 12 characters (not including the word 'Farm'), so we've also limited our suggestions to those which are 12 characters or less.

'Farm' will always be added to the end of whatever you type, so don't type 'Farm' in on your end, unless you want every character to say it twice!
