Dragon names should sound like they have been spoken for a thousand years — ancient, powerful, and slightly terrifying. Use these for adult dragons, wyrmling names, or draconic NPCs.

Frequently asked questions
Do dragons name themselves in D&D?
Ancient dragons choose names in Draconic that mortals shorten or translate. A wyrm might introduce itself by a full ancient name and allow lesser creatures a simpler form.
Should dragon names match their color?
Chromatic dragons often use harsh, fiery syllables; metallic dragons favor nobler, resonant sounds; gem dragons use crystalline or prismatic tones. Adjust flavor to match your dragon's type.
