There are a few dragons in 'Eldest'. Saphira is still in the series with her rider Eragon. The red dragon on the cover is named Thorn. His rider is Murtagh. There is also the older golden dragon, Glaedr, with his rider, Oromis.
Eragon
If you are talking about Eragon's dragons name it is Saphira. If you are just talking about the dragons in the series it is Thorn, Gladier and I dont quite remember Galbatorix's dragon's name.
The dragon, that is Eragon's companion, is Saphira.
Brom told Eragon that female dragons' names end in -ia, which is a common suffix for female names. For example, the female dragon who chose Eragon as her rider is named Saphira.
"Dragon Rider" is a term used to describe someone who can bond with and ride dragons, while "Eragon" is the name of the main character in Christopher Paolini's fantasy novel series. In the series, Eragon becomes a Dragon Rider after bonding with a dragon named Saphira. So, technically, there is no difference between a Dragon Rider and Eragon, as he embodies that role in the story.
Yes. Eragons dragon is a girl. Her name is Saphira. It's in the first book; Eragon.
Eragon
My friend has known a dragon named "Auren" He is a gold dragon.

The conflict is when Murtagh comes to the battle between the varden and the empire - he is not dead - he is a dragon rider sworn to King Galbatorix. His dragon's name is Thorn. He kills King Hrothgar and battles Eragon and Saphira and defeats them, but Eragon sees the heart in Murtagh and convinces him to let Eragon and Saphira go. Before Murtagh leaves, he tells Eragon that he is his half brother, making Eragon Morzan's son. He then takes Eragon's sword and retuns to Uru'baen. Roran kills the twins - also alive and evil - and the Varden defeats the empire. Read on in Brisingr, the third book, for more.
