Ok, the reason for this thread is to make a list of base names for a faction. I have loaded up other people's factions, and I have seen small lists of base names. My list here will be something like this.
-atia, Base, Fortress
So say you had some faction that loved SUPPORT. Then you come up with some names that had to do with SUPPORT. My favorite place to do this is http://thesaurus.reference.com/. For this, I look up support and here's the word "fulcrum". Just simply add your meaningful faction ideas here. So in this case we'll have "Fulcrum Base", "Fulcrutia" and "Fortress Fulcrum". Feel free to borrow, expand, throw around, forcibly impart this list to other people and yourself.
I'll add the ones in the game as well.
-a, -arium, -asium, -atia, -omia, -orium, -plex, -polis, -ville, Abbey, Abutment, Academy, Access, Acres, Agency, Altar, Annex, Apex, Apogee, Arboretum, Arch, Area, Arena, Armory, Badlands, Banks, Baricades, Barrio, Base, Basement, Basilica, Basin, Bastion, Bazaar, Bethel, Bluff, Bog, Border, Borough, Bowl, Bridge, Brig, Bulwark, Bunker, Burg, Butte, Cache, Camp, Canton, Canyon, Capital, Castle, Cathedral, Cave, Cavern, Center, Central, Chancel, Chapel, Chateau, Church, Circle, Citidel, City, Civic, Claim, Clearing, Cluster, College, Colony, Command, Commons, Complex, Compound, Conclave, Concourse, Conquest, Conservatory, Core, Corner, Cornerstone, Court, Cover, Crag, Crescent, Crossing, Crossroad, Crux, Dale, Deck, Defense, Den, Depository, Depot, Desert, Destination, Dig, District, Domain, Dome, Domicile, Dominion, Dormitory, Dunes, Dungeon, Dwelling, Edge, Emporium, End, Environs, Estate, Exchange, Expanse, Extention, Facet, Farms, Fen, Fence, Field, Fissure, Focus, Fold, Footing, Forest, Fort, Fort, Fortification, Fortress, Foundry, Fraternity, Freehold, Garage, Garden, Garrison, Gate, Genesis, Glen, Gorge, Grassland, Green, Grid, Ground, Grove, Guard, Guild, Gulch, Gym, Habitat, Hall, Hamlet, Hangar, Haunt, Haven, Headquarters, Heights, Hills, Hold, Homestead, Hospital, House, Hut, Industry, Infrastructure, Inn, Institute, Intersection, Jail, Joint, Junction, Jungle, Keep, Keystone, Knot, Lair, Land, Landing, Lawn, Library, Limit, Locus, Lodge, Loft, Magazine, Mall, Manor, Mansion, Market, Maze, Meadow, Memory, Mill, Mint, Mire, Moor, Morass, Mosque, Mound, Mount, Mountain, Municipality, Muskeg, Nadir, Nest, Network, New, Nexus, Node, Nucleus, Nursery, Observatory, Of Chiron, Of Nessus, Offense, Operations, Oratory, Orchard, Origin, Outpost, Pagoda, Palace, Palisade, Parapets, Parcel, Parish, Park, Pass, Passage, Pasture, Patch, Peak, Pedestal, Penitentiary, Perimeter, Periphery, Pillar, Pit, Place, Plant, Plantation, Platform, Plaza, Plot, Point, Position, Post, Prairie, Precinct, Preomenade, Primeval, Principle, Protectorate, Quadrangle, Quarry, Quarters, Quinta, Ramparts, Ranch, Range, Ravine, Redoubt, Region, Rendezvous, Rest, Retreat, Ridge, Rise, Rising, Rock, Roost, Sacellum, Sanctuary, Sanctum, Savanna, School, Seat, Section, Sector, Seminary, Sepulcher, Settlement, Shelter, Shire, Shop, Shrine, Site, Skein, Soil, Sorority, Source, Spot, Spring, Square, Stage, Stand, Station, Stockade, Stop, Stretch, Strip, Structure, Study, Summit, Support, Swamp, Tabernacle, Tanks, Tavern, Temple, Terminus, Terrace, Terrain, Territory, Thicket, Throne, Throng, Town, Tract, Traversal, Tubes, Tundra, Underpinning, Union, University, Valley, Vantage, Vault, Veldt, Venue, Villa, Village, Vineyard, Voids, Wall, Ward, Warehouse, Warren, Waypoint, Waypost, Wing, Wood, Works, Yards, Zone
Ok, that's a pretty large compilation. Its alphebetized. Now here is a list for sea bases. This is invariably short on made up factions. Use this to help you out.
Abyssal, Achipelago, Amphibian, Anchorage, Approach, Aquatic, Arm, Baptize, Bar, Barrier, Basin, Bath, Bay, Bayou, Beach, Bight, Blue, Breaker, Breakwater, Buoy, Canal, Cape, Cascades, Cavern, Cay, Channel, Cleansing, Coast, Conduit, Cove, Creek, Crest, Current, Deep, Delta, Deluge, Dew, Dive, Docks, Drift, Drops, Estuary, Excess, Fathoms, Fiord, Firth, Fisheries, Fleet, Float, Flooding, Flow, Flux, Fountain, Grotto, Harbor, Harborage, Haven, Hideaway, Iceburg, Inlet, Inundation, Island, Isle, Jetting, Kelp, Lagoon, Lake, Landing, Lanes, Levee, Lighthouse, Loch, Marina, Marine, Maritime, Mist, Narrows, Nautical, Naval, Navy, Ocean, Oceania, Peninsula, Pier, Pilot, Platform, Point, Pond, Port, Quay, Reef, Resort, Ridge, Rinse, Ripples, River, Rock, Sea, Seaport, Seaway, Shallows, Shelf, Shelter, Shipyards, Shoals, Shores, Sluice, Soak, Sound, Spit, Splash, Spout, Spray, Spring, Straight, Stream, Sunken, Surf, Tidal, Tide, Torrent, Trench, Uprising, Upwelling, Viewpoint, Wash, Water, Waterworks, Waves, Waypoint, Well, Wharf, Wides
Ok, so its isn't as big as the normal base names. Just take a normal base name and stick "Deep" "Water" or some other word in front of it. There are enough names there so if you only had one word that described your faction, you will have a full list of sea base names to put in your faction. I happen to use the SMAX editor which has a cap of 38 land and sea names each. Go too it, people.
