Leave gender on Any if your dragon is beyond such things.

Tips for Dragon Names
What makes a dragon name feel big.
- 01
Go long
Three or four syllables sound ancient; one syllable sounds like a pet.
- 02
Use heavy consonants
R, TH, X and K sounds rumble; soft vowels suit sky and sea dragons.
- 03
Give it a title
Mortals rarely say a dragon's true name — a title like “the Cinder Queen” does the work.
- 04
Match the hoard
A gold-hungry dragon and a library-keeping dragon should not sound alike.
