Translation English to Latin: "Born from fire"

Hello everyone,
I'm currently in a swordsmithing class. Our teacher asked to us if we wanted to engrave anything in the tang of our blades.

As smithing is done in fire and Latin was still a common language in de middleages (which is the timeperiod for my sword), I'd like to engrave Latin for "Born from fire" (Born from flames would be ok too).

What I have now is "Natus ex ignis". But I'm not sure this is completely right.

Thanks in advance!

@George,

Thanks for the answer.
It'll be a hand-and-a-half sword, Oakeshott typ XIIIa.
I'll try to remember to post a picture when the engraving is done.

@TCFK,

supres en flegmagnos---I just got this one from my supreme confider.

here is why, supres like supercede means to become and embodies the total birth concept without sounding too physical I guess even though it is physical. It's not just appear, or born, somewhere in the middel. It comes from flame, and in this case big flame or the word for bonfire is used. Born in flame. That should "entertain the concept"
