Take Leo & Lucy for example...when can I start calling the babies Leo x Lucy

When they hatch, of course noone will probably know what Leo x Lucy is.

Or since I know Falkor's lineage from Mike, and Saphira is Leo & Lucy's, do these babies have to be normals too?

They would be (whatever Falkor is) x normal. If you kept hitting the offspring back to whatever falkor is though then yes after a few generations you could drop the normal from the name.
There's no set rules with beardies. You could take Leo x Lucy babies and call them Glowing Purple or any other name that hasn't been taken already. Cutesy names are mainly for marketing purposes and don't necessarilly reflect genetics.
There are 3 main ways to describe beardies.
Genotype - This is the genetics and honestly we really don't know to much about them with beardies. You'd be safe with the recessives (leucistic, translucent, etc.) but that's about it.
Phenotype - What they show (red, yellow, orange, brown, etc.)
Marketed Name - Citrus, Salmon, Lemon, Flame, etc. etc.
Is that any better?
