From the [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=wiki&article=51]FR naming policy[/url]:
[quote]The name should not be used to insult or defame the previous owner of a dragon that has been exalted (i.e. "spiteful exalting" or "exalt harassing")[/quote]
I don't have any actual expertise in this, but I'm pretty sure that to qualify as harassment under those rules, your dragon naming would have to be (a) way worse than silly stuff like Sparklebutt or Memecuisine, and/or (b) targeted at a particular player for the purpose of insulting them.

@Sopheroo, reminding people to name their dragons is not aggressive, someone else did that nicely earlier this week. Deliberately naming dragons with stupid names, however, is.

Wingwing is in the name generator, so bad names are not against the TaC

[url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=46264]that's the lair i was talking about earlier[/url]
imo, it's the best lair on site, with a concept I adore. But, the dragons names are not what is seen as traditionally good. Beauty being in the eye of the beholder and all. For me, the comedic effect of this lair is what makes it beautiful.

@Sopheroo, that's a lovely lair, I agree; but that's not what I was talking about. Earlier suggestions were to name unnamed hatchlings after bodily functions or to use a set of hatchlings to scold someone for not naming their dragons. That's aggressive.
I have a pair of dragons whose offspring are lyrics too; they're all exalted by me so the names don't change. :)

Welllll.....to be fair, whether a name is "stupid" can be subjective from person to person. I've named TONS of hatchlings this week as "UCanDoThisNATURE", "NoGIveUpNature", "SupportNature" --all of which may be stupid depending on your point of view.
Im sure as long as its not against ToS or attacking anyone (ex: "I love Nature!!!!" vs "Booo Light"), its fine.

@Lightning The problem is that what qualifies as a "good" name varies. I own a dragon named Bananahammock. I think it's an adorable name. Other people might not agree with me. People might name a hatchling something like "PuppyLove" or "NoodleSempai" which they think is cute and done with no ill intention and the owner of the parents finds that extremely offensive.
@SleepyPoet Those seconds count in a close dom battle. If it's so easy, diy.
