There is much power in a name, and much power in the ritual they have unknowingly enacted here, with earth, sea, and sky as witness. Perhaps they have only ensured he need not fear 'wandering off' again within his mind, only helped him adapt to the power in this new world.
Perhaps they have done far, FAR more than that. He has offered up everything he is to his dragon, and he was joyously accepted. (A sacrifice, a sacred marriage, a binding rite.) Perhaps he has bound himself to her for all of time in a way no other being ever could. (Tied himself willingly, EAGERLY, to an immortal by blood, by oath, by power.)
Changes should be expected, most likely.
She snuggles against him, less aware of the changes than he is.
