Naming our World! (Map landmarks, Regions ect)

imgur.com/cQ4sFr4

I created a map with boundaries and labels so we can better discuss and name regions. I divided things up as logically as I could. Mountains, lakes, large biomes, strange or unique land structure, and hills and valleys. On the larger land masses I divided them in half, I figure they might keep the same name but be something like North Biglandmass South Biglandmass, etc.

Again I'm not suggesting that this be the final region borders but we can use this to discuss what should be final (for now).

I suppose I should come up with something for G8, seeing as a massive chunk of it is my deed...

I would like to propose D1 be called the Terra-cotta Coast.

You can just enter the new deed info in the "add your deed" form on the map page, then I'll just add it next time I check the submissions. If you use the same deed name I will just update the existing deed instead of adding a new one

Edit: just saw your post in the map thread, since it's a different deed name this doesn't apply.

Need plenty more. And how do you guys like each others proposed options so far? We can't just go naming everything off what we each like hehe. but if multiple people enjoy it, it can be done.

Aye, I would definitely do it myself, but I feel someone else would be a LOT better at doing it then I. I've got crap tools to work anything map-related.

The main things that need named are the mountains, Lakes, and canals (or wtv you want to call them, Basically like where New Town is and Jaede proposed Hope Bay)

Regions can come at a later time or at the same time if people have good names that everyone generally likes. but the main focus should be the easy landmarks.


The problem atm is everyones just wanting to name whats by them (heck even I did!) But I don't really know any good names for any of the other one's. Because I like naming areas based on "What's around them" So the name's sort-of fit. I.E: My propsed "Oakshire Grove" Will have Oak's in hopefully most of the area once I'm done.

May be best and do what Jaede suggested, Give it some time so the area's "flesh out" a bit and maybe the name's will come naturally. Atm, with Jaede's map there's no huge reason to have names for area's, but it would be nice for those that like a quick "Oh yeah I live on mirror lake" Type thing.


If someone can come up with a good way to mark down what needs naming, I'd encourage it. I'm just not good at doing that sort of thing on the map, I can easily create the post, but not outline the area's.
