Dragon Names

[beatrice_otter]

The Temeraire wiki has a helpful list of dragon names.  If I had known that when I wrote Lieutenant Bennet's Visit, I would have probably used that and made Lizzy a lieutenant on a dragon we've already seen, rather than making up a name.  I hate making up names.  And dragon names are harder, at least English dragon names, because I don't know Latin enough to fake them.  I doubt I'll need another dragon name other than the canon dragons for the fic I'm writing now, but for future reference: what do people think are good dragon names?

When I need a dragon name, I usually check out pitseleh's delicious, honestly. >> this page is probably the most helpful for a non-Latin scholar like you or I, but all his Latin links have some possibility of usefulness.
