The dragon is the most auspicious creature in Chinese culture, power, vision, and good standing. Used with restraint, it makes a bold name.
Characters that carry dragon
- 龙 (lóng), dragon.
- 辰 (chén), the dragon hour, celestial.
- 翔 (xiáng), to soar.
A note on balance
One dragon character is bold enough. Pair it with a grounded character so the name does not read as a video-game handle.
