Greetings again! Alas fellow GM's, I have yet another conundrum; put a name to the Queen! Back to my built-from-scratch campaign, I've been thinking over many ideas for what to name my all powerful ruler. She's a royal half dragon somewhat; the top half of a woman, and where the legs would begin, it instead begins with the body of a crystal dragon.
So, I need some powerful sounding names! Something quite fantasy like, but not trying too hard, and definitely not one trying too little. Throw your suggestions my way!

I can't think of something off the top of my head, but when I am stuck for a name what I always start with is take the letters of a literal description of the character (DRAGONQUEEN for example) and make an anagram.
i.e. Orcish Sorcerer who blasts stuff = ORCBLASTS = Brassclot the Orc

Elvrynn the Scintillatrix
Empress Zyphriana, the Prismatic
Kathystine, the Lustre-Winged
Queen Chalcedonna
Azalith of the Thousand Facets
Vexillania, the Shardmistress
Any or all of these could be prefaced with "Her Exquisite Majesty" or "Her Brilliance".

QUADRONEGEN?
Those are some interesting names! :)
But shouldn't this thread be in either the Advice or Homebrew section?
Lady Shandrashallis Empress of the Crystal Throne, Betrayer of the Fifth Legion, Queen of the Dark Passage.

Probably! And I do apologize, but I'm quite bad at finding the correct thread for my questions haha
Excellent suggestions everyone! Though, could I perhaps get some more names going with a small bump? If you guys don't mind!
EDIT: The name I had going was Lady O'Kalen, but it didn't sit right, not to mention too Scottish haha ...or Irish, one of the two. Definitely not what I was seeking

While this might not fit all settings, but I prefer using "literal" names. Simply being known as "The Empress" can give someone a unreal/supreme air. It deifies them in a way.

Hm! The thought never actually crossed my mind to try something so simple. I think this is going to be one of my top, if not my first choice for the naming biz! Thank you kindly sir for your input.
