Omg I didn't even make the connection to the actual word galore I can't even, I was too stuck on how similar it looked to Galoers (prob not spelled right, the pre tundras) to notice his name is a real word

This is throwing me back to all the times I used words I came across in reading only, and then having people looking at me with squinty confused eyes.
Like Jalopy for example : / : / : /

That was me with epitome. I always pronounced it ep-i-tohm, like a tome of knowledge

Anachronism. Choir. Hermione.
I was just talking to my husband about how for YEARS I saw "slivered almonds" as "silvered almonds" and wondered why they were named after a color when they looked like slivers.
Also, while I think Galore is a cool dragon, the word itself bothers me because it feels like the accent is on the wrong syllable. I'm not a fan of "galore" used by itself, or as a noun instead of an adjective. xD My brain, friends.

Part of my brain wants to say "Gaelor" like the ancient breed - for no other reason than this is FR.
