In Goblin Slayer, characters often don't have names because it emphasizes their roles or professions rather than individual identities. It adds to the series' unique storytelling style and focuses on the gritty, job-oriented nature of their world.
It's symbolic! The characters' roles are more important than their names, emphasizing their functions in the story and the brutal, utilitarian world they live in.
Because names are overrated! Who needs names when you have epic titles like Goblin Slayer or High Elf Archer?
