What makes a fantasy mountain name convincing?

A convincing fantasy mountain name gives the reader a sense of scale, danger, or local history. Peaks, passes, ranges, and old names from nearby peoples can all shape the result.

Can I use these names on maps and in games?

Yes. The names are suited to campaign maps, novels, game regions, and lore notes. For a public product, still check that a chosen name is not already tied to another setting.

How should mountain names fit a fantasy region?

Match the name to the geography. A holy summit, dwarven hold, volcanic ridge, and wind-scoured pass should each have a different sound and reason for being named.
