One of the most memorable characters of the best selling Harry Potter book series, Draco Malfoy’s first name is Latin for "dragon," which says something about how his parents thought about power, and it's also name name given to an Athenian lawmaker known for his harsh and strict laws, which is a reflection of how Draco treats the people around him.
As for his last name, "mal" is French for "evil," which neatly situated him in the moral stratum of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone." "Foy," according to Pottermore, is a reference to the French word "foi" which means "faith" or "belief." Rowling is telling us that his whole family has evil beliefs — the allegiance to blood purity that she rails so much against.
Vlad (The Impaler) Tepes was the second of four brothers born into the noble family of Vlad II Dracul. His sobriquet Dracula (meaning “son of Dracul”) was derived from the Latin draco (“dragon”) after his father’s induction into the Order of the Dragon, created by Holy Roman Emperor Sigismund for the defense of Christian Europe against the Ottoman Empire. Vlad moved to Târgoviște, Walachia, in 1436 when his father assumed leadership of the Walachian voivodate (principality).
In 1442 Vlad and his younger brother were sent to the court of Ottoman Sultan Murad II as collateral to assure the sultan that their father, in a reversal of his previous position, would support Ottoman policies. Vlad returned in 1448, having been informed of the assassination of his father and elder brother at the hands of Walachian boyars (nobles) the year before. He then began a campaign of terror against his enemies that is etched in history.
Ricky Steamboat made his wrestling debut in 1976 and in 1985, was offered a contract by Vince McMahon and joined the World Wrestling Federation (WWF). Shortly after his debut, Steamboat was given the gimmick of a babyface nicknamed "The Dragon"; Steamboat's jacket-and-trunks attire was replaced by a keikogi and long tights. His father was white, and his mother was Japanese American, hence his Asian features which were crucial for his "Dragon" gimmick. Steamboat kept the nickname and gimmick for the remainder of his career.
The first Asian-American actor to ever have a lead role in a Hollywood film, Bruce Lee was nicknamed ‘Little Dragon’ (he was born on the Chinese Year of the Dragon, on the Day of the Dragon, and on the Hour of the Dragon) by his mother. The name stuck with Bruce in various forms throughout the rest of his life.
The movie that would help define Bruce Lee to the world was originally called Blood & Steel. It was only later when Bruce started seeing it get put together that he said he wanted it to be called Enter the Dragon. He was told, ‘Bruce, that’s a title for a kids’ movie.’ So he called Ted Ashley [chairman of Warner Brothers], and Ted said to give it to him if he wants it, he’s the one doing all the work.
Enter the Dragon, released days after Bruce Lee’s death in 1973, made him an international star and became a martial arts film classic, forever making him The Dragon to legions of fans.
