How dragon names work

Dragon names should sound ancient and dangerous. Ours are built from heavy opening sounds (Vor, Scor, Pyr, Ig) and rolling, rasping endings like -thrax, -gon, -drax and -vion, and most come with a title the dragon has earned: the Ashen, the Undying, Skyrender. Use them for a campaign boss, a fantasy novel or a fierce pet.

Tips

  • A title says what the world fears about the dragon. Pick one that fits its colour or its legend.
  • Say the name with a hiss or a growl. If it sounds good like that, keep it.
  • A dragon in hiding might use a short false name, and keep the true one secret.
