Magic: The Gathering Dragon Name Generator
This generator builds Dragon names on demand, and gives you the meaning behind each one rather than a bare list. Results are shaped to sit comfortably alongside established Magic: The Gathering naming, so they suit fan fiction and tabletop play without clashing with canon. Switching tone changes the whole character of a dragon name, so it is worth trying more than one. Export options cover Markdown, CSV, JSON, and TXT, so results drop straight into whatever tool you write in.
