A dragons name is made up of words of power itself as demonstrated with Odahviing. The name "Numinex" doesn't mean he IS One Eye, but rather that he now belongs to One-Eye because Olaf treated him like a pet. After years of being mocked with this name his true name is long forgotten and with it so is his soul. Dragon Names are descriptors, and while they're important, they're not that important: their importance is derived from arrogance, not some intrinsically vital nature. In fact, the implication is that Dragons change their Names every so often: Durnehviir was not always Cursed with Undeath. On that note of Numinex, it does not mean One-Eye: its meaning is unknown.
