Tips for a name that sticks
Hard consonants sound ancient
Names built on harsh sounds — k, x, th, dr, gr — feel old and dangerous. Soft, flowing names suit elves; dragons want weight and growl.
A title adds legend
An epithet like 'the Ashen' or 'Flamebringer' turns a name into a reputation. Use it for named bosses and ancient wyrms, not common drakes.
Match the element
Let the sound echo the dragon's nature — frost dragons read well with cold, crisp syllables; fire dragons with rolling, burning ones.
