The Japanese name for Rodan, '''Radon''', is a truncation of the word ''[[Pteranodon|Pte'''ra'''no'''don''']]''. This name was given to the creature because he is a mutated member of the ''Pteranodon'' species. The official English name of the kaiju is Rodan. The name was changed to avoid confusion with the element Radon.
Rodan's Japanese name, Radon, is a truncation of "[[Pteranodon|''Pte'''ra'''no'''don''''']]." It may also have been chosen to suggest radiation. The name was changed to "Rodan" in English-speaking markets, possibly to avoid confusion with the element Radon. Toho eventually trademarked the name "Rodan," making it the monster's official English name.

Unlike the previous Rodan incarnations, this Rodan is more realistic and looks like a real ''Pteranodon'' with some elements of [[wp:Azhdarchidae|Azhdarchids]], such as a larger head in relation to its body. Like almost all other Rodan incarnations, this Rodan has two crests in his head and spikes on his body.
This incarnation of Rodan retains the character's core design traits, being a giant pterosaur with two crests on his head and spikes on his chest. However, this Rodan much more closely resembles a real ''[[Pteranodon]]'' in terms of his bodily proportions.
