This is so much better than the random name generator! My strategy is to end all names in -th. The first half of the name might be the name of one or both parents, or some blend of them. Or some feature of the dragon, or a phrase or word. During Pushes I often get thematic about it, with variations on a theme. I have a lot of fun naming dragons! I even have a dragon in my clan to perform that role in context. [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=24103972] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/241040/24103972_350.png[/img] [/url]

@Baysil I can see you as a dragon psychologist, telling your clients to “exalt away their feelings” by naming their fodder after people they hate. Ahem.

another suggestion: get a bunch of words that remind you of the dragon, mush them together and add or remove letters until it looks like a name. my personal favourite method, along with taking names off weird minerals.
