Tips for Better Names
- Clan name comes before personal name
- Names should sound powerful and draconic
- Dragonborn clan names are long and are said with pride — often longer than the given name. That imbalance is the signature of the style.
- Keep the given name to two or three syllables so the full name stays sayable: short personal name, imposing clan name.
- Young dragonborn often use a shortened nickname of one syllable. Pick it deliberately; the party will use it constantly.

Clan is the most important social unit for dragonborn, so the clan name carries generations of history and is stated in full on formal occasions. It is meant to sound weighty.
