When I got my first reptiles I named my iguana after Ingeloakastamazilion, (or Icing Death) from the Crystal Shard. When my (then future-) mate got me a turtle I named it after Aremag from the Ring of Winter. I have named all my hatchlings after dragon's in the series of books.
My current pair of skinks recently had a baby. The species is threatened (a step away from endangered) so breeding them has been a huge goal of mine. (EDIT: no one really wants the difficult details in breeding skinks :p ) In short, I have the new generation of lizards, and wanted to explore the names of dragons in the new incarnation of the worlds most popular game.
There are quite a few on the gaming end of things, but I was hoping to get one from the fiction side. I know a handful of dragons exist in the tales, but I don't know if they have names? Can you help me out? What novels have named dragons? Which of the webfiction (I'm woefully behind) stories do? What are those names?
Thanks!
(yes I realize Aremag was probably named after the godzilla movie & yes though I am pronouncing it to the best of my recollection I probably spelled Ingeloakastamazilion incorrectly. :)

There's a female green dragon named Zuldanavox.
You can find a gigantic number of dragon names in Dragons Unleashed. There are the 15 dragons detailed in that book, plus a list of a bunch of others.
Another way to branch out would be to name them after the stars in the constellation Draco. Way, way, way back when, during AD&D/1e, I named the Gold Dragons that attended Bahamut after the brightest stars in that constellation. (The PCs met one or two of them.)

You have to dig down to find the names based on what type of dragon you want to use but the Wiki "Dragon/Inhabitants" category has you covered for all of your dragon naming needs
Thanks all :)
Master of Devils is next on my list then. Queen of Thorns is next on my list. Not sure what's after that, but Liar's Blade sounds good. I missed the Plague of Shadows getting a name when I read it, I guess I will have to look a little closer.
Cpt_Kristov I dinnae realize the wiki had the novels as well. When i looked through there I only saw sourcebooks. Time to double check now that I have a couple of names :)
