About Wings of Fire names

In Tui T. Sutherland's Wings of Fire books, a dragon's name tells you their tribe before you see their scales. Each of the ten tribes draws names from its own corner of the natural world. MudWings are named for swamp life (Clay, Reed, Cattail, Umber); SandWings for the desert (Thorn, Qibli, Jerboa, Sidewinder); SkyWings for birds of prey, fire and red gems (Kestrel, Peril, Carnelian, Vermilion); SeaWings for anything under the water (Tsunami, Anemone, Riptide, Nautilus); IceWings for cold and Arctic animals (Winter, Icicle, Lynx, Permafrost); and RainWings for rainforest plants, animals and vain adjectives (Kinkajou, Mangrove, Glory, Magnificent).

NightWings are the exception: they use invented compound words that sound like a prophecy or a boast, such as Starflight, Clearsight, Deathbringer and Fierceteeth. On the continent of Pantala, HiveWings take insect names (Cricket, Wasp, Vinegaroon), SilkWings take butterflies and moths (Blue, Luna, Swordtail, Fritillary), and LeafWings take plants, often poisonous or carnivorous ones (Sundew, Belladonna, Hemlock, Cobra Lily).

The names below include canon characters and new names that follow the same rules for each tribe, so an OC will sound like they belong in Pyrrhia. Tropical fruit, desert landforms, mountain terrain and beetles appear too. If you are writing a hybrid, pick a name from either parent's tribe rather than blending two words; that is how the books handle it.

How to choose Wings of Fire names

  • Decide the tribe first, then pick a word from that tribe's world: a SeaWing called Hemlock or a LeafWing called Riptide will read as wrong to fans.
  • NightWing names are two ordinary words fused into something grand or ominous, usually about sight, thought or battle: try Nightseer, Truthfinder or Shadowhunter.
  • Real-animal names should be species that actually live in the tribe's habitat; a SandWing named Fennec or Addax feels more researched than one named Lion.
  • RainWings can be named for flattering adjectives (Splendor, Exquisite), and royals across all tribes often carry the grandest names in the tribe.
  • Keep OC names to one or two syllables unless the tribe favors long words, and check the fandom wiki so you do not accidentally reuse a canon character.

Frequently asked questions

How are Wings of Fire dragons named?

Each tribe uses a naming theme tied to its habitat: swamp words for MudWings, desert life for SandWings, birds and gems for SkyWings, ocean creatures for SeaWings, cold things for IceWings, rainforest life for RainWings, and invented compound words for NightWings.

What are good NightWing names?

NightWing names combine two words into a title-like name about seeing, knowing or fighting: Starflight, Clearsight, Moonwatcher, Deathbringer, Fierceteeth. New examples in the same style include Nightseer, Truthfinder and Dreamvisitor.

How are Pantalan tribes (HiveWings, SilkWings, LeafWings) named?

HiveWings are named for insects and arachnids (Cricket, Wasp, Vinegaroon), SilkWings for butterflies and moths (Blue, Luna, Morpho, Swordtail), and LeafWings for plants, especially poisonous or carnivorous ones (Sundew, Belladonna, Cobra Lily).

Can I use these names for a Wings of Fire OC or fanfiction?

Yes. Names cannot be copyrighted and fan works using tribe-style names are common. Just avoid reusing a canon character's name for a major OC, since readers will assume it is the same dragon.
