I called my town Pokobo because it rhymes with "chocobo" and chocobos are cute, and Pokobo sounds cute, and.. yeah.

My home neighborhood is Sunnyside, Queens in NY. Now that I live overseas from home it's a nostalgic name and also seems to fit perfect with a fun, foresty town full of cheerful animals!
Lucky it fits if I write it in Japanese, when I tried to write my town name in English on my profile here I realized I wouldn't have been able to name my town that if I was playing the English version!

 

[bloomwaker]

I just really like chocolate truffles. I did not know there was a villager by that name, though. I feel like people may think I named it after her. lol;;

 

[Carina]

My town name is Escissia. The German-speaking users here might know where it comes from
Escissia is the German name for Vaniville Town in Pok?mon X/Y. I chose this name because it sounds cute in my opinion :3

Raimon is the town/school in Inazuma Eleven. xP

I'm starting a new town today and thinking of naming it Talis because:

a) it sounds cool
b) it's a place in the book I'm reading atm
c) it's simple and easy to remember

Yep, I've decided!! Talis, here I come lol...

Thank you Glaceon2000 for setting up this thread so that I could finally decide my town name!!!!!

 

[Silverwind]

It just came to mind first thing so...

 

[Klinkguin]

The first letter of my name with ville on the end xD pretty simple if you ask me.

When I got my hands on the GameCube version of Animal Crossing I just wanted to start playing and couldn't come up with a good name. That's why I named my character Mina (that's my nickname) and the town Minatown. Super creative! xD

When I started playing Wild World I asked myself: How would you call a place that makes you feel comfortable? Kariko was born and I'm still using this name. It's a homage to the small village in "A Link to the Past" which is called Kakariko.

My main towns name is SakuraV, which is short for Sakura Valley. A roleplay world I made up years ago to roleplay in with my friends. My second town is named X-mas, for Christmas Town. Its a christmas themed town I've been working on since October.

 

[dreamysnowx]

I think i've told this story a hundred times, but I came up with my town name like this..

My name is Jennifer.
I like pho. :3
My friends used to call me Jennipho.

And when I got the game, I didn't know what to name my town. So why not "JenniPho". LOL XD

 

[The4thDoctor]

I needed a town name, so I was all like, "Hey, Pokemon has lots of town names!" and the first Pokemon games I thought of were Zeta and Omicron, so I looked at a map of the region in it and picked Varlox as my town name.

 

[KaptenK]

First town: Riften is my favorite town in Skyrim.
Second town: R?vgryt is foxhole in Swedish.

 

[Poppyann]

I'm terrible with names. I like the Lord of the Rings, and I come from a place called WiltSHIRE. (lots of Shires in England). I want my town to be peaceful and pretty like the Shire from LOTR, so it works c:

 

[jax1234]

I named my town Gluten because I can't eat gluten and it popped in my head to use that name.

 

[Squart]

Anistar (after the city in Pokemon)
