Another vote for Mr Bubbles here.

Or if you want a video game reference, change him to a female and call her Saskia.

A level one dragonslayer? How about Shaky Brunt. After you bring down a couple maybe people will find you a new nickname.

So im going to play DnD and i want some names for my guy he is more or less a dragonslayer and i need some bad ass epic dragon-murding names for him

Dude, if your DM isn't an idiot then there's no way you'll be any sort of dragonslayer. No matter what edition you're playing, no matter how strong or smart your character is, no matter what "bad ass epic dragon-murding names" you come up with, you are going to get roasted.

And I'll tell you how it goes down.

You hear that there's a dragon living in a cave in the mountain outside of town. So you go over there, giggling your ass off as you're fondling your best sword.
You go into the cave, maybe fighting a few rats here and there until you arrive in the dragon's chamber. It's just like you imagined; it's filled wall-to-wall with gold and jewels, sparkling with the wealth of a thousand kingdoms.
But the dragon isn't there.
Disappointed, you fill your pack with gold and make the long trek back to the entrance. Up ahead you see the blinding light of day. Then you realize a few things.

1) Dragons have to deal with this sort of crap all the time, so they prepare. They know all the entrances to their lairs, and they listen for incoming adventurers.
2) Among their many abilities, dragons are some of the world's best spellcasters. And every magic user worth their wand has Teleport on their list.
3) That isn't daylight up ahead. It's fire.

Then the DM will describe in loving detail every blister on your skin as your armor melts, your flesh cooks, and your blood boils.

In short, you're not picking out the best name for the history books. You're picking out what looks best on a gravestone. So pick something with a lot of straight lines, like "Kel." Stonecutters usually charge less for those.

I often pick Raldur Farstrider as a name for characters
Another one I like is Kerrigor Frost-Splitter

Alternatively, if you have read the Dragonriders of Pern series, you could name him along those naming conventions.

Yep, it's pretty much decided that he's named Mr Bubbles, now onto the next thread.
