Example Names
Dragonborn names carry Draconic phonology — hard consonants, guttural sounds, and r-heavy syllable clusters. The clan name is announced before the personal name in all formal contexts because identity begins with lineage. A draconic name earned at the completion of a significant deed may replace the birth name entirely. Names are meant to resonate when voiced at full projection; if a name does not sound right spoken aloud, it has not been fully tested.
How to Pick and Customize Your Name
- Draconic phonology favors hard consonants (k, g, r, sh) with resonant vowel clusters (aa, io, esh) — names should sound like they require physical effort to pronounce.
- Always write the clan name first in formal contexts: "Stonescale Arjhan" is the correct form, not the reverse.
- Double vowels (Donaar, Raiann, Nadarr) are a quick signal that a name belongs to Draconic tradition without needing footnotes.
- Personal names earned through deeds can replace birth names entirely — building this into backstory adds depth without requiring much exposition.
