From the Wild West antics of Jesse James and his gang to Bill Mason, who stole an Olympic gold medal from swimmer Johnny Weissmuller, thieves have carried out robberies throughout history.[1]
Some robbers focused their attention on banks and other businesses, while others targeted people of known affluence.[1]
Did you know that someone once stole the famous painting Mona Lisa? Vincenzo Perrugia, in disguise as a security officer, was able to pull this off.[1]
The famous bank-robbing duo of Bonnie and Clyde are typically also at the top of the list for famous thieves.[1]

How to Create Your Own Thieves Guild Names
Create your own thieves guild names using the following tips:
- Use famous thieves as inspiration. Look up stories about famous thieves, and you’ll likely find a treasure trove of thieves guild names options. We used this tip to create Ma Barker’s Bunch and Dillinger’s Derelicts. Look for lesser-known stories to create a more unique guild name.
- Look up words that are associated with thieves and thievery. Think about words that are typically used to describe theft, such as deceit. From just that one word, you could create several names, such as “Web of Deceit” or “Deceitful Derelicts.” You can also check out synonyms to find a host of other possibilities like Duplicity, Money Business, and Stratagem. Get creative!
- Be sure to check for naming rules and guidelines. Before you spend time creating the perfect thieves guild name, see if the game you’re playing has any restrictions for the number of characters your guild name can be or what it can include. Some games have very specific rules for naming. Create a name that’s acceptable and appropriate for your game.
