Tips for Choosing a Dragonborn Name
Dragonborn names often reflect attributes like strength, courage, and leadership. Names meaning “mighty,” “brave,” or “bold” are common.
Look to dragon names from lore for inspiration. Names that evoke fire, scales, wings, etc can make good Dragonborn names.
Clan lineage and dragon ancestry are important in Dragonborn culture. Consider naming conventions that tie to metallic/chromatic dragons.
Dragonborn names are meant to convey power and instill respect or fear. Opt for hard consonants and strong sounding names.
Short, striking names with guttural tones suit the directness of Dragonborn speech and naming. Avoid soft, verbose names.
The ritzy, arrogant Dragonborn of Clan Veritas often have elaborate, almost pretentious names.
Some good sources for Dragonborn names include Draconic translations, Akkadian and Sumerian names, Roman warrior names, and old Norse names.
Pick a name you love saying aloud. Your character’s name should be bold and fun to dramatize in roleplaying moments.
With Dragonborn culture in mind along with some guidance on conveying the right themes, you can create the perfect Dragonborn name for your character. Take your time and say potential names out loud until you find the right fit.
