I can't for the life of me pronounce that crap. Seriously? Bahlokdaan, Kaalgrontiid, Yolnahkriin, and Mulaamnir. I'm sorry, I don't speak Klingon

    They have some awful idea that fantasy names must include 'ii' or 'aa'.

    It's not that someone came up with these names, it's that their boss okayed them.

    I worry about ZOS.

    The names are fitting for the themed content for the year. Dragon names for the campaigns.

    Totally. I mean I fully understand some nerd programmer coming up with these names, but for them to get pushed into the game as campaign names that we the players have to pronounce.. how did they get the green light on that one.

    I get that they wanted to theme it after the new chapter, but why can't the dragons have names like Tom, Susan, and Andrew

    Those names are horribly difficult to pronounce. Lore is nice but sometimes push lore aside just a bit so we can communicate better.

    At least they all start with different letters? "Hey let's get into our campaign - it's the one that starts with K."

    Aye, I'm all for lore when it comes to zone/town names and stuff. But for PvP campaign names we need something we can remember, and actually pronounce as humans

    It can be like animal sounds!

    The sheep goes Bah(lokdaan)
    The crow goes Kaa(lgrontidd)
    The millennial goes Yolo(nahkriin)
    The cow goes Mu(laamnir)

    @ZOS_BrianWheeler We need a video with you telling us how to pronounce these, and tips on remembering how to spell them.

    or like, you know, some 4-7 letter campaign names instead. ;)

    ZOS wanted the names to be dragons lore friendly.

    Am i supposed to be a Greybeard to pronounce these names lol.
    if they wanted Dragons at leased choose the ones we normal folk can pronounce like Alduin etc...

    I would rather they just be numbers like Campaign 1

    I think it was fine with the god-kings. They are easy to pronounce, lore friendly, short, and not hard to forget

    Well, ZOS decided it's more fitting that the campaign names will be chapter lore friendly, since Morrowind.
    Nothing is wrong with the current campaign names.
    Next year/two years from now they will replace the Elsweyr campaign names too(probably).
