Q:Do you think it’s possible that the light fury will be called Luna? Someone pointed out a dragon character from the book series that had a fairly similar description to our lady dragon on the poster.

Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo that’s really really really reallycool. I LOVE IT. I LOVE IT.
I like this idea and now I really want her named Luna, too!
There are several comparison points we can make between Luna from the books and the Light Fury here (note this will involve spoilers to the HTTYD book series):
See Also
Light Fury (character)- In the books, Luna and Toothless are the same species - the Seadragonus Giganticus Maximus. There’s a bit of a shock reveal in the books when we learn Toothless is a Seadragonus Giganticus Maximus himself. Similarly, the Light Fury and Toothless in HTTYD 3 are the same species, and there’s a shock value to discovering Toothless being the same species as this dragon he encounters.
- There’s lots of fandom speculation going on about the Light Fury being aquatic. If that’s the case, we can point out that the Seadragonus Giganticus Maximus is a water dragon species as well.
- In the books, Luna is given her name because she glows like the light of the moon. As described on p. 92 of How to Fight a Dragon’s Fury,“…the Dragon Furious called his second-in-command to him, a luminously beautiful Seadragon slightly smaller than himself, known as Luna. She was so-called because she glowed with light like the moon. She lit up the dark stormclouds all around, and waves of heat pulsed out of her, so that the rain smoked and hissed when it landed on her shining body.” And from the picture of the Light Fury we have seen in The Hidden World, she also glows and looks radiant like the moon. So we get a dragon who is the same species as Toothless - like Luna - and glows with the light of the moon - like Luna.
- Luna is integrally important to saving the dragons in the final books! She’s the queen of dragons, and even though she’s initially hostile to Hiccup’s ideas (she fights against Hiccup with Furious in the war), she becomes the dragon Hiccup turns to to save dragonkind peacefully. She and Hiccup make arrangements for the dragons to disappear to where they can reside in safety apart from human civilization. HTTYD 3 willlook at the concept of“There were dragons when I was a boy,” meaning the story will address whether or not - and if so, how - the dragons will disappear. It would only make sense that the Light Fury, akin to Luna, is how Hiccup and Toothless connect with the dragons in the hidden world - that this Light Fury is part of the key to helping dragons reside safely, even if in HTTYD 3 they turn out they need to disappear, too.
And if I get into more speculation, I could keep goingwith these parallels between Luna and the Light Fury.
In fact, there are so many parallelswe can envision between Luna and the Light Fury that I’m starting to wonder if this is some intentional parallel. Even HTTYD 2, for all it progresses the story very differently than the book series, can be discussed through a series of parallels with Cressida Cowell’s novels. How many of those parallels are intentional, how many parallels are accidental, I don’t know, but the HTTYD trilogy has always hugged to the books like cousins. This Light Furyvery wellcould be named Luna!
And if she is, I’m going to scream.
