How to choose a great dragon name

  1. 1

    Match the name to the dragon's age and temperament — ancient wyrms earn long, heavy names.

  2. 2

    Consider the element or colour as inspiration, but avoid the obvious ('Firey').

  3. 3

    Make sure it can be roared and whispered — dragon names get both.
