After struggling with resetting, I struggle now with a name.

My old town's name was Amestris. I really like it, it sounds magically and a bit sad and it's the name of the state in one of my favorite anime.
But I'm still attached to my old town's name Amestris and I kinda can't accept any other name.
The only other name I can think of is Elysea (from the game AION) but I don't find it as appealing as Amestris.

I already googled a lot of stuff and used generators, but I'm not satisfied with anythingg
And it's not really "resetting", I transfer almost my entire belongings to the new town ^^'

So, I can't decide and I don't know what do to. Please help me! >-< Just a few opinions, please.
 
You should keep the old one. It makes it easier for people to find out which town to go to, and I like the name.
 
I restarted a couple days ago and still kept my original town name. I would go with what you feel comfortable with and accept no less. :D

I personally enjoy giving new towns, new town names. Originality is something that makes every town unique.
I named my 1st town, Hamel
2nd, Bellocan
and 3rd Just started, Oracion
I really wanted to name a town, Pizzicato. But it's 1 letter too long ;A;
Do you like your names to have any meaning or reference behind them? Is there a theme you were going for?
Pretty much all my town names are derived from some other interest I had in the past whether it be a T.V. show or another game.

Cool names btw!
Yes, I wrote that Amestris is the name of a state from one of my favorite anime.
I want the name to have some meaning behind it (anime meaning he he) and I already looked up some names from my favorite anime. For example, Skypiea is a cool name imo and it's from my favorite anime of all times One Piece, but I can't come over it and use any other name than Amestris... someone slap me '-'

Oh and for a theme, something with old japanese/moon/night. Just something that pops into your mind when looking at my town siggy.
 
I think your best option is to choose a name that has a lot of meaning to it, something that you can read and it makes you smile.
If the name Amestris has a big meaning to you, then I would say to keep it.
Sometimes a new town would be nice with a new town name. It can create a whole new adventure to the game. But in the end it is your choice c:

If it's something to make me smile, I would need to name it Luffy but this is a person's name and not town DX

I know, that's why I'm trying to find a new name...
but I agree with you that it should be something that makes me happy.

I'll search for something connected to One Piece again and if I can't find anything, I think I'll go with Amestris.
 
you seem really attached to the name Amestris, so i suggest keeping it unless you find something so good that it makes you want to use it immediately.

there's nothing wrong with keeping an old town's name, and you might regret changing it later on if you don't find something that makes you 100% happy.

All Blue or Laguna, or something connected with the sea and ocean? Or just keep the old name if you are used to it.
 
Thanks for all the help, guys! c:

I think I need to decide now.

I just got this idea: Fuusha(mura), means Windmill (village), which is the hometown of my beloved Luffy.
And roseflower just suggested the name All Blue, but I'm not a fan of English names, so I went and looked up the japanese translation for it and it would be (if it's not wrong) subete for all and ao for blue. I kinda melted it and I came up with Suou.

So basically there are three choices, Amestris - Fuusha - Suou

What do you guys think?
And sorry that I take so much time just for a stupid name ha ha

ooh, i think fuusha is the best out of those, it flows really well. i like suou the least.

i don't think you're taking too long to decide, you're gonna be stuck with whatever name you choose so it's understandable.

if you map reset and you still can't decide, you could alternate names and just keep the one that you used when you find a good map.
 
Okay, I decided. It'll be Fuusha! c:

I kept naming it Fuusha, but only crappy town maps spawned. Then I named it Amestris and an acceptable town map spawned and I tooK it. It even had some nice villagers like Tia, but it didn't feel right when I took a walk and I thought "wait.. this isn't Amestris...". I realized that Amestris will forever be my first town but not my second.


Thanks a lot for the help!
 
I'd say a new name if you want to have the feeling of getting a fresh start. On the other hand, if you really like your old town's name and want to have a sense of continuity, I'd say keep it!
 
Hmm... Maybe a greek gods name or fair name or something with a spin of "Thea" Or "Ic" or something strange to the end? You can take your favorite place and make it sorta magical like spelled? Or maybe a baby naming site would help? You can also look up names of flowers, anime characters, anime villages, fairy names, anything mystical if thats the theme you are going for! Just start looking at random things you like on pinterest maybe!
How come you are re creating a town even? Are you not happy with the name? :P Because if its the map or something else maybe you can just keep it instead then!
I liked changing my town name personally! From Anthea to Sunshine xD haha. I do hope you find one!
