For me it varies from dragon to dragon:

- Some already had a good enough name when I bought them
- For others I hit "randomize" until I found a good name
- Every now and then I'll get my random names from behindthename.com
- A select few I named myself (Riley and Riley are the only two I can think of right now)
- Some are named because of their lore. Some examples: Shade (who was corrupted by the shade as a hatchling and thus never really developed as an individual who'd want or need a name), Zrknwr and IiIRrdv (both are gods from another world, and their names can't really be pronounced on Sornieth)
- AppleOcean, BurnedFeather and FallenProphecy are all random names strung together by the same google spreadsheet I use to name my fodder and fodder breeders. Some highlights of this generator include EggPlant, SerialKiller and SilverFerret. Usually it's more along the lines of TouchingContest, NeatPlague or SingingSpear though

GIF featuring a pastel-icy colored Coatl called Sirel, who is glittering fabolously. Text next to him reads 'Others about Sirel', while the actual quote being displayed changes randomly each time the page is refreshed. Quotes: 'He's an honorary Ridgeback', -Kereth (local Ridgeback). ~ 'What does a fish-eater need 14 doves for?' -Canopy (local carnivore). ~ 'Why does he call me a Bogsnek, what's a snek?' -Kuriel (Imperial, turned Emperor, turned Imperial, turned Bogsnek). ~ 'He's not a clown, because clowns are scary', -Yoldu (doesn't like clowns). ~ 'If only he’d join the shade, we’d be unstoppable', -Nalar (the shade). ~ 'A Sirel a day keeps boredom away', -Sirel (usually after having done something foolish). ~ '0 out of 10 accomplice, keeps confessing our crimes', -Robin (in reference to the two of them stealing the Mona Lisa from Crim). ~ 'nice', -Akio (Sirel's Friend). ~ 'Don’t let him fool you into thinking he’s stupid', -Yoldu (Sirel’s fae language teacher). ~ 'This Dragon is an experience', -Merlot (Sirel's Mate). ~ '10 out of 10 would befriend again', -Verioth (Sirel's Friend). ~ 'Life without Sirel is possible, but pointless', -unknown (probably Sirel). ~ 'I knew his parents, I don't know why he's like this', -Kereth (who knew his parents and doesn't know why he's like this). ~ 'He fights like he has no idea what he's doing', -Seramore (Someone who's competent at fighting). ~ 'Where did all the glitter go?' -Eryu (Resident Clan Artist). ~ 'Please stop memeing and go to sleep', -Merlot (Sirel's Mate, tired of his shenanigans). ~ 'Please don't eat that- SIREL!!', -Malura (Resident Clan Pharmacist). ~ ...and that's all the quotes, for now! If any new ones are added, I will be sure to add them to the start of this list. Thank you for traveling with Darkfrost Memes, and have a nice day.

Honestly? I try to buy prenamed dragons because I'm awful with naming.
Failing that, I use nice-sounding "fantasy" gibberish XD

sometimes the dragon's appearance gives me inspiration, or i already had something in mind when buying the dragon, but a lot of the time i just flip through random names looking for names/name bits i like, and then i play around with them in my head until i'm satisfied ;P

I either use this latin dictionary or I randomize names until I get something decent and then swap letters around.

The randomizer is your best friend Honestly sometimes I'll go through the randomizer until I find something I believe fits. I also take a lot of native american names, usually with meanings I like ^^

Then theres the dragons who are representatives of other non-FR characters... same thing. Or! Find out what your dragons overall 'theme' is (Ex. Fire, Darkness, Courage) and type in "Names meaning (chosen adjective)". These bring up interesting results sometimes.

Welcome to FR by the way! Get ready to be sucked into dragon hell
