resetting my town, zen or forest?

not sure whether to do a zen-themed town or a forest themed town. i've spent a solid 4 weeks now trying to reset my town & finding the best map, and i'm getting rather tired.

i need town names & mayor name suggestions, apparently it's popular to not use your real name. i was thinking of something like mina or ines (with a funky accent on top of the e). but i need helppp

so please (if you would like to) suggest some town names & mayor names for me, for a forest and/or zen town (if you have any ideas!)

(i have no imagination)
thanks.

IM DEAD BAHAHAHA

boop!!

A heavily forested Zen town would work nicely. As for names, nothing can come off the top of my head, I'm afraid.

Which theme do you like best?
Which theme gives you more ideas on how to landscape?
Which villagers would you like to have, and which theme do they fit the best?
It'd be better to think of these things instead of asking what other people prefer.
It's your town and you'll be the one visiting it everyday, after all.

Personally, I think you should combine the two and go for a zen forest town.

As for names, I suggest either Mori or Shinrin for the town name. Both words mean forest in Japanese, although mori can also mean jungle. And for the mayor's name, I like Hinata because it can mean sunny place or sunflower.

I second this idea. I couldn't figure out if I wanted more of a zen town or a forest one, so I just decided to combine the two.
