City Name List

[ixnay]

Set up a poll with one city name out of each person's suggestions?

[BigFurryMonster]

Good idea, ixnay.

[statusperfect]

Anf where will that city be built?

Added some options and will include a poll when the forum allows me.


Proposed text for this:

-----------------------

What should our second city be called?

See this thread or below for some background on the options.

The options are:

Ceribus
Timeline
Mithraetum
Sachiel
The Dungeon
Don't Raze Me
Lumen (light)
Lux (light)
Regio Equorum (region of horses)
Regio Demogypticae Novae (region of Neu Demogyptica)
Forum Equorum (city of horses)
Honor Belli (Glory of War)

I think "Luxia Riverside" would be nice

Add that to the poll

[BigFurryMonster]

Added and created the poll.

Okay, BFM and I agree on the name 'Campus Felix' (fertile plain) for city #3. Any ideas for #4?

[BigFurryMonster]

Something with "Medio" (middle) ?

[Jon Shafer]

Sounds good... I like it.

What's the word for 'crossing'? Something along the lines of 'Middle Crossing' sounds nice.

[Jon Shafer]

Okay, for City #4, I propose "New Invictus".

The irony...

How about renamin Invictus to something funny when NDE get there?

Since I'm reading the Aeneid right now, the following just came to mind: Alba Longa. (Actually, Lavinium would work just as well...)

[Jon Shafer]

What does Alba Longa and Lavinium mean?

They sound kinda cool though, I wouldn't mind either of those at all.

"Don't Raze Me!"

Lavinium: City that Aeneas founds in Latium after getting there.

Alba Longa: City around 15 miles SE of Rome that Aeneas's son, Ascanius, founds after Aeneas dies (three years after Lavinium's founding).

I brought both of these up because Aeneas was Trojan, and we all know what happened to Troy.

(Actually, come to think of it, how about Ascanium?)

And as to renaming Invictus:
