So I am part of a new group that is starting up and I think the hardest part will be making names. Is there a Star Wars name generator that goes by species?

One of the best is in the Star wars hero guide by wotc. If you can find one.

I often use this one for Human names

WotC's Galactic Campaign Guide has some pretty decent charts for several alien species, such as Bothans, Duros, Twi'leks, Zabraks, Mon Cal, and Wookiees.

I've been using this one...

http://donjon.bin.sh/scifi/name/#type=star_wars;star_wars=Star Wars Male

It has different species in the drop down menu. It also has name generators for a lot of other uses as well. Good stuff.

If one were willing to dig around, one can find all sorts of cool stuff on donjon - planets, ships, etc. Great resource!

both are good. the campaign guide is the one with the names. I mixed them up..

I've used several of these online ones mentioned (just tonight, actually...) but I have found that behindthename has a good generator. Although all are RL names, depending on the language you're using and the language you're native too, many can be quite exotic.
