The Town Name Idea Thread

[PapaNer]

Just somewhat a suggestion to those looking for a neato unique name. I used to just pick two words I like, and look them up in a few languages and kinda mash them together!

Like,
Animal In Dutch it is 'dier,' and crossing in Czech is 'přechod,' and so you can use Dierchod. Not the best example ever, but sometimes it goes pretty well

AC:NL will be the first town I actually get to name, as my sister used to always name them. I may go for something video game related but I like AC the best so, it's going to have to be something like Resettown or Curtville. Nookton maybe?

Nookton is the only one of those you can use, because of the character limit.

I only had Wild World and my town there was called Mossdeep. I don't know what my new town in NL will be called though.

I'm not sure if this has been suggested on here already but how about Tuscany, Treehut, Jreome, or Ninim

 

[Nooblord]

What about Nirvana, or my favorite song my them: Lithium.
At first I thought we would be able to name the island, and I was planning on naming it Serenity.

My last town was Illusion..my friend names hers E-ville which I like a lot too

I'm not sure if I want to use my old town name (Suitcase) or if I want to change to something new...
my ideas are ; bonsai or cat town (reference to Murakami Harukis' novel 1Q84 )

As a graduate student in literature, I'm going with a lit-inspired name, Dewydell (Dewey Dell is a character from Faulkner's As I Lay Dying, and happens to have a felicitously beautiful name). I thought up a bunch of other literary themed names though that fit within the 8 character limit:

Meryton (Pride & Prejudice)
Longborn (also P&P)
Ferndean (Jane Eyre)
Pequod (Moby Dick)
Arden (As You Like It)
East Egg / West Egg (The Great Gatsby)
Linton (Wuthering Heights)

I'm going to be naming my town Hyrule! all my towns are named that because i am big fan of Zelda!

I still haven't decided on a name for my town yet. My buddies have already chosen their town names and I've dropped the idea of making a matching name since what I wanted to use won't fit. I've got a list of names that I'm considering, but I've taken to jokingly calling it Buttopia in the meantime. In the end, maybe I'll use it. no i won't. maybe.

I found a place name generator. Here it is for anyone who wants to try it. These are some names that I got from it that I thought sounded nice, but I'm not going to use any of them since I'd like to come up with my own name. Maybe someone else would like 'em though:

Bluemont
Deermill
Deerdell
Freyford
Freywald
Freymere
Fairice
Highwell
Mistwick
Oldrose
Orwyn

My town in WW was called Urbeto, which is just Esperanto for village. It means "little town". I wasn't sure whether I'd call it Urbeto again or something new. Novfolio? (new leaf ) Not sure how many characters you get.

Should I go with Moonside or Tazmily?
Both from the Mother/Earthbound series.

Both from the Mother/Earthbound series.

Moonside sounds nice but Tazmily is much more unique.

 

[JaneyBriggs]

Hogwarts, not original but I am ok with that.

 

[Rune]

I think I'm going to just go with Starfall.
I removed a letter from a different name I had but it ended up sounding really weird to me. D:

 

[Mothership]

I know that "mori" means "forest" in Japanese. I'm considering naming my town Pinewood or Pineforest.....so what would that be in Japanese? Does anyone know?

Matsu is pine
Matsumori
Matsuki

 

[Mothership]

Thank you, Litwick Matsumori is so pretty, but it's one letter too long......bah. Matsuki is nice too, tho.

Is there a site somewhere that I can look for other Japanese words like all the fruits etc?

 

[Kitsune]

Well, momo means peach, and ringo means apple. I think orenji is orange. Sakura is cherry blossom so it may be a similar word. I got nothing on pears.
