Or just, pick a nice one. I'm restarting for the millionth time, only this time it's because my 3DS and game card were stolen. Yeah. Kinda had no choice. :(

I have decided to make this particular town my best and have chosen some names off the top of my head. I'm going to be going for a southern tourist trap vibe, like Pigeon Forge or Myrtle Beach, but since the stinkin' character limit is so gosh darn short, I have to be creative.

Here are my choices and their reasoning:

Salem: Sounds awesome. Makes me think of witches and mysterious autumn afternoons. Only issue is I think it *might* be too common and it is more evocative of New England.

Caldera: In AL there's a county named similarly to this. Perfect, but it's a bit too... big sounding? I don't know. Related to volcanoes too, and they aren't found anywhere near the south.

Vestavia: There's a high class city in AL with the same name. It's really beautiful and just exudes glamour and white people. Same problem with Caldera though, too big. But I love it!

Calico: Might be my first choice (along with Salem). Reeks of the past. Plus if I decide I'm getting a cat it's /perfect/! (pressing the italic button on mobile is hard okay)

Please help! And if it's not too much trouble, helping think of a female mayor name would be super, cause otherwise I'm going to end up calling her Sarah.. which is like, not unique at all since I'm called that on a daily basis.
 
Think I actually decided to name her Clarity or Westerly, unless someone had a better idea.

Only thing about Vestavia though means my town will lose it's atmosphere... I still love the name, but I dunno how it'll work in my town.

If I don't choose it I bet a lot of y'all will, which would be cool.

My second town is Salem, and usually I got for super unique names but I really wanted something that just felt the witchy vibe straight off. Even though I have it as mine I really like that name the best. I have visited several Salem's and I always love them. Mine is going to be a halloween/OTGW themed town. So it's perf.
 
Bump for great justice.

Surprised to see Caldera and Calico on top. I was expecting it to be the other way round.
 
I went with Calico, personally. I like your reasoning behind the name, and it would fit the theme of anthropomorphic animals. Plus I have a calico for a pet. She is a queen, and very loud about it!
