In the Shrek film series, what is the name of the dragon who becomes Donkey’s partner?

The story behind the answer

In the Shrek film series, the dragon who becomes Donkey’s partner is Dragon.

Dragon first appears guarding Fiona in the first Shrek film. Donkey initially fears her, but their comic interaction develops into a romance. By the end of the film, Dragon and Donkey are shown together, establishing one of the franchise’s recurring relationships.

Dragon later has children with Donkey, known as the Dronkeys. They appear as a group of small, winged creatures in later stories. The character is usually identified simply as Dragon rather than by a personal name, which distinguishes her from named characters such as Fiona, Shrek, and Puss in Boots.
