This question is so vague. What is your plot about? Where is it set? What kind of mood are you going for? Who is your main character?

Generally speaking there are a few naming conventions for fantasy themed work;

1. An overarching, plot-related title. Examples: Game of Thrones, Lord of the Rings, Hunger Games, His Dark Materials

2. Title character titles. Examples: Harry Potter and the..., Percy Jackson and the..., The Adventures of...

3. Location titles. Examples: Discworld, The Spiderwick Chronicles

4. Smaller, episodic titles. Examples: The Sword of Shannara, Dragons of Autumn Twilight, The Test of the Twins, Return of the King

These are all books but fantasy forums tend to follow similar trends. Forums also sometimes use some in-universe content for titles for example:

- ________ Region (Pokémon sites)

- Warden’s Vigil (a Dragon Age reference)

- From the Ashes (a Lord of the Rings reference)

- Godric’s Hollow (a Harry Potter reference)

You could also use pop culture that is appropriately themed. I’ve seen fantasy plot RPs use lyrics from songs from anime that happen to resonate with their story, or theme.

Hopefully this helps kickstart some ideas but if not more information would be helpful!
