My friend and I are attempting to come up with awesome words for 'fire'. We've already thought of most of the ones in English. Does anyone (who speaks Japanese) know of some awesome-sounding words for 'fire', 'inferno', 'magma', 'blast', 'lava', etc.? I'd be greatly appreciative.

These may sound awesome.

業火 GO-KA (pronounced like "go car", literally "sin fire")
flame in hell that burns and punishes sinners. Today, simply a big fire.

劫火 GO-KA (same pronounciation, literally "robbing fire")
inferno that burns out everything at the end of the world.
Originally a Buddhism word.

灼熱 SHAKU-NETSU (literally "baking/burning heat")
extremely hot.Hot enough to burn out something.
The first character SYAKU is the same one in "SYAKU-GAN NO SHANA, Shana of the Burning Eyes"

烈火 RETT-KA (sounds like "wrecker")
literally "intense/strong fire" and so in the meaning.
