No suggestions from me (except Bizmarckia, maybe). Other then that, I'm going to view this one on the side lines.

How about "Frank"? That's a good name... Else, I'm happy with Scip's suggestion that we use the default ones...

The secrets behind the avatar change shall be revealed shortly... On topic, how long will discussion last?

I can play the turn at any time if you guys can come to some sort of consensus.... personally, I agree with Scip that we should keep close to Celtic traditions, not necessarily going with the default, but let's not rule it out. Bibracte would be the first city by default, which is a very important city in celtic/gallic history.

I'm not against that personally either. I do like the Dunromin one too though. Probably going to need a vote to perhaps establish a concensus of what the people want. If the people want the standard names given, we should just stick to that then. Might just be easier too.

One vote for Dunro(a)min coming up. With our unique building being Dun it's just too good to resist... Addit: though presidential discretion goes a long way too. Play the turn!

Yeah, if we desperately want to have a different name, we can always change the name of the city if enough people complain.

Using gaelic words with 'first' meanings:

Faoilteach: nm. g.v. -ich, the last fortnight of winter and the first fortnight of spring

...the tribe emerged from the long winter (figurative and literal) of their wandering and settled down to face a spring like no other, the Springtime of Civilization, called such because the first crops were planted that would move them from their nomadic existence to a settled existence to rise to be the great nation they would become.

fochann: g.v. -ainn; first shoots of corn (L.Sc. braird)

gasda: a. excellent, splendid, good, first rate
