Dragonborn D&D Name Generator

In D&D 5e a dragonborn's full name has three parts. The Player's Handbook explains that a dragonborn receives a personal name at birth (Arjhan, Kriv, Surina, Farideh), inherits a clan name that is placed first in formal use (Kepeshkmolik, Norixius, Yarjerit), and earns a childhood nickname from friends that describes a habit or deed. Canonical nicknames include Climber, Earbender, Leaper, Pious, Shieldbiter, and Zealous, and many adult dragonborn still answer to them.

Given names are short and hard, usually one or two syllables with a k, r, sh, or th sound. Male examples run Balasar, Ghesh, Medrash, Torinn; female examples run Akra, Havilar, Nala, Uadjit. Clan names are the opposite: four to seven syllables of dense Draconic. The two halves are deliberately mismatched, which is why a full dragonborn name has such a distinctive rhythm at the table.

The list mixes complete three-part names, given-plus-clan pairs, and standalone given names and nicknames so you can assemble a character exactly the way the Player's Handbook describes, or pull a quick NPC name mid-session.
