sometimes it just takes me aaaaages to think of a name for a dragon. i've got two g1s in my lair atm that'll be unnamed until i can think of smth. it has taken upwards of two years to name a dragon before, but often i'll throw a placeholder name in there so i can level them in the coli.
sometimes it's for lore reasons. i actually have a bunch of dragons unnamed in my lair on purpose bc they're meant to be like... cryptids. two of them came prenamed and i'm still a lil miffed by that but i understand, i live with it. they're just meant to be Unknowable™ so they don't have names. the clan refers to them with names, sure, but they don't actually HAVE names so.

I'd better keep dragon unnamed for a while than give it name I don't really like, and I'm really bad in finding suitable names for my dragons.
I also like the aesthetic of this name. I will keep dragon unnamed for years while spending on them thousands of gems for genes/umas/apparel and I don't see anything wrong with it.

Why not?
I don't name
some dragons bc I don't have a fitting name yet,
some because it fits their lore,
some because they don't need a name rn
I like 'em unnamed, so why would I name them

Had a dragon stay unnamed for two years it just be like that sometimes

names hard :(
also buying a renaming scroll seems odd to me, i feel a bit guilty for using them for some reason? lol.

sometimes it takes me months because i either forget or just can't think

Brain no work good. Brain sees pretty dragon, want pretty dragon. Brain can't always come up with good name right away. Don't want to just use random name and then waste money on a scroll down the road when a better name finally comes to me. So they sit and wait until they tell me their name which can sometimes be a while.
Though sometimes being Unnamed is perfect for them, like my unnamed goose.
(I also like to keep a few unnamed on hand to test out possibly 'banned' names, sometimes folks will go "hey why can't I name dragon [insert name]?" and usually its not that it was banned but there was just a space added or something.)

I'm sure it's already been mentioned in this thread, but I personally really like unnamed dragons because they feel more mysterious. I don't do lore in my lair, but it's kind of as if the dragon may or may not have a name, but we don't know it and they're not telling.
For me, "Unnamed" doesn't mean "this dragon hasn't been given a name," it's "this dragon doesn't have one" and they're different to me.
Some of my ultimate favorite dragons in my lair are unnamed! Including this 6-digit girl I spent about 8kg for, so.. definitely a bit above fodder price ^^

I have one I bought a while ago who's three years old and is unnamed due to lore reasons. Otherwise I normally name them quite fast, even if just a placeholder name. I'm not the biggest fan of having unnamed dragons sitting around, as I have nothing to call them in my head as I try to figure out their lore.

Honestly for some dragons I just have the hardest time picking a name. For me a name needs to be perfect if it's a dragon I care about and I want to keep. So sometimes that means leaving said dragon unnamed for ages before I suddenly stumble upon the perfect name. Take this guy for example, he was my obelisk statue. I adore him, but I just haven't found the perfect name I wanna go with so he's been unnamed for 11 months.
