They have small hairs on their chin (flot). Even though people say dragons are mystical, The Bible talks a lot about mystical creatures in revelation. Just thought I should say that>>>

Bearded Dragons are called "Bearded Dragons" because when they are scared, angry, or annoyed they puff up their "beard," flatten their belly, and open their mouth (BTW, if you see a Bearded Dragon do this, you would want to get away from it!). Male Beardies have a black bearded so, when they do this position, they look bearded and look like a dragon.

The "bearded" part comes from the spikes that come from out of the back of his head. The "dragon" part is comes from his general speed and appereance.

Their common name comes from the scales under the lower jaw. These scales are slightly longer than the rest, giving the appearance of a 'beard' - like a man who's not shaved for a while.
