How was the dragon named in The Neverending Story?

It represents hope.

Yes, the main dragon named in the story is Falkor.

Falkor is white.

Well, as for the naming of the horses in The Neverending Story, it seems that for Artax, it might be a name created to sound both strong and somewhat magical. Since it's a fantasy story, names often have an air of mystery about them. The author likely chose a name that would stick in the reader's mind and give the horse a sense of importance. And as for other horse - like creatures like Falkor, his name also has a certain uniqueness to it that suits his character and the overall tone of the story.

The naming of the dragons in The Neverending Story could be part of the overall world - building. The author probably wanted names that were distinct and would stay in the readers' minds. Falkor, for instance, is a name that is easy to remember and also gives the dragon an identity that is both friendly and magical. It's not based on any real - world dragon - naming conventions, but rather what fits the fantastical nature of the story.

The main horse is named Artax. I'm not sure if there are other horses with different naming processes in the story, but Artax is a very unique name for the horse that plays a big role.

I'm not sure if there is a specific naming system. But the main horse is named Artax.

There is mainly one important horse named Artax in the story, and it seems to be a unique name given by the author without any specific naming method mentioned in the context of the story.

Falkor is a luckdragon. He is very friendly. He has a long, white, furry body which is quite unique for a dragon. He is also very helpful and always there for Atreyu when he needs assistance. His presence often brings a sense of hope and security in the story. He can fly, which is a common ability for dragons, but his other qualities like his loyalty and kind - heartedness set him apart.

The Neverending Story has a rich tapestry of characters. While Falkor is the well - known dragon, I haven't noticed any characters named straightforwardly after a dog. As for the dragon, Falkor's name is unique in the story. There could be a case where a character's name has a derivative or an allusion to Falkor, but it's not something that jumps out immediately. It could be that the creators of the story chose not to have such obvious naming after the dragon to keep the mystery and the uniqueness of Falkor intact.
