Our president has mentioned that he would allow the gathering community to name this place which we appear to be getting ready to settle. This, of course, won't happen unless we actually have some suggestions to vote on. Therefore, I wish to open this thread to suggestions as to what we'd like our home to be called. One thought I had was to name the cities after prominent (active) members of our community. Even more fun may be to look up celtic translations of our names if possible and make some variation on it. Just a thought. Your turn

Praps we can each come up with one city name, and the President can pick from the list as he sees fit? (And yes, he may even pick his own suggestion...) Also just a thought.

How about we just call it Entremont?

Me personally, I dislike anything except historically appropriate names that fit with Celtic history. In Alpha Centauri I always came up with screwball names, but for Civ I dunno, it just seems like it is an "alternate history simulation" or something so the names that they provide in the default list (else some simulacrum of similarly Celtic words) is what I'd propose.
