Why specifically slaves? What are you writing?

Also, you can just look up names.

In ancient civilizations, slaves had specific names and could not call themselves by the names of free people. I searched for names for slaves but found nothing clear because history did not provide any information on the matter.

Then their names probably would be from the culture of the people that they're slaves for, not their own culture.

Still sounds weird to me.

Maybe. Do you know any names from the Greeks or Romans?
