RainWing Name Generator

Choose male, female or either, set how many names you want (1 to 10), and press the button to get RainWing names in the style Tui T. Sutherland uses for the rainforest tribe in Wings of Fire. The list holds 494 single-word names, all of them things a RainWing might actually be called: rainforest fruits (Açaí, Bacuri, Maracuya, Sapote), jungle plants (Kapok, Heliconia, Hibiscus, Bamboo), rainforest animals (Capybara, Caiman, Cassowary, Coati, Koel) and the vain, showy adjectives the tribe is known for (Astonishing, Bodacious, Gleaming, Iridescent, Lovely).

What you can set

Two controls. The gender dropdown has Random, Male (181 names) and Female (313 names); the split is a judgment call, since canon RainWing names aren't gendered by rule, so use Random if you just want the widest pool. The number field takes 1 to 10 and defaults to 3. Each press shuffles the filtered list and returns names from the top, so a batch has no repeats. The results are plain name cards, one name each, with nothing else attached. This page covers RainWings only; there is no tribe selector, so it won't give you SeaWing, IceWing or NightWing names.

How RainWing names work in the books

In the series, RainWings live in the rainforest on the Pyrrhian continent and take their names from what is around them. The canon cast follows three patterns, and the list on this page keeps to the same three:

• Rainforest food and plants. Jambu, Mangrove, Coconut, Banana, Tamarin, Orchid, Bromeliad, Heliconia. Fruit names are the most common in the books and in this list.
• Rainforest animals. Kinkajou, Tualang, Tamarin. Here you'll see Sugar Glider, Bush Baby, Pit Viper, Boa Constrictor, Fairy Wren and Dhole among many others.
• Vanity adjectives. Glory, Grandeur, Magnificent, Splendor, Exquisite, Dazzling, Handsome. The tribe's older royalty especially favor these, which is why the list includes Amazing, Attractive, Beauteous, Charming, Divinity, Felicity and Vibrant.

A few names in the list are two words (Tiger Lily, Misty Rose, Desert Flower, Mango Tango). Those are less common in canon, where almost every dragon has a one-word name, so if you want strict book style, skip them and press again.

What people use the names for

• OCs and fan fiction. Generate ten, pick the one that fits the dragon's personality, and check the Wings of Fire wiki to make sure it isn't already a canon character (Glory, Kinkajou, Jambu and Mangrove are taken).
• Roleplay servers. RP groups often require tribe-accurate names; a fruit or animal name passes without argument.
• Naming a whole RainWing village. Press with 10 a few times and you have a hatchery's worth of dragonets with names that sound like they belong together.
• Art challenges. Draw the dragon the name suggests: a RainWing called Iridescent and one called Capybara should not look alike.

For dragons from other fantasy settings, the Elden Ring Name Generator and Random God Name Generator go in a darker direction, and the Na'vi Name Generator is another one built around a single fictional culture. The Witch Name Generator and Gnome Name Generator cover other fantasy characters, and all name generators lists everything.
