What did you name your island?

[Cariad]

Rubisco. I wanted to name my island one of the words I had learned in my Biology course and this one stuck

 

[Rex of Elysium]

I named mine Disneyland, due to the Disney theme I am going for.

 

[Keepitcosmic]

Stardew! Because i’m a huge Stardew Valley fan and the word is pretty

 

[s i r e n t i c]

I named mine Asphodel, after the Asphodel islands in Greek mythology.
My second choice was Soteria, which is the Greek goddess of safety which I felt really embodies how I feel about the animal crossing games

It was between Gilead (from the Dark Tower series) and Hogsmeade (duh). Went with Hogsmeade on a coin toss.

Although now that I think about it, I missed a real opportunity to go with Koholint. I always name places from books, though. Sheesh.

Sandy Bay... Not very original I know. But I like how simple it is plus I like the flag that I made for the island considering I'm not an artist.

 

[milotics]

Fairydew and I named my character Mavis, both inspired by Fairy Tail which is my favourite anime!

 

[Snowesque]

Reviled; it means something backwards as well, which I think is cool!

 

[Katy88]

Bonnieux, after a place in France I was supposed to be going on holiday, until coronavirus started!

I'm going to try for a French vibe for my island, and get some of the french-sounding islanders

 

[Lethalia]

I named mine Symphonia, after one of my favorite video games of all time, Tales of Symphonia. I love that entire franchise but Symphonia was the first one I played, and the one I've beaten the most. It's what introduced me to this series so no matter how many more they release, it'll always have a special place in my heart.

 

[SweetSpark]

These are all such great names, really starting to rethink my own now!

I love the fantasy vibe everyone seems to have!

 

[Saikarie]

It took me forever to pick a name, but after typing in words into a thesaurus online I finally decided on Halcyon!

I wanted an island name that sounded quite whimsical so it could play off into a fantasy world, but also uncommon as a word so I wouldn't feel obligated to follow a theme based on it. That and lastly I wanted it to give feeling on what I hope my island would become ^^

Here are its meanings:

adjective

1. denoting a period of time in the past that was idyllically happy and peaceful.

noun

1. 1.
   a mythical bird said by ancient writers to breed in a nest floating at sea at the winter solstice, charming the wind and waves into calm.

 

[Soigne]

turnip. it was what i named my first town when i started playing animal crossing in 2005.

 

[Stam]

Laugh tale. It's the name of an important island in One Piece

 

[brockbrock]

Cavalon. It's the name of a place in Guild Wars that I used to play when I was younger.

I also think it sounds like a charming, quaint seaside town, which is what I'm going for.

I tend to name my fantasy characters Halcyon! Its a great name!

 

[Bcat]

Our Island, because I am a vision of originality. And because it follows the theme of my last two towns. My town and Our town. The dialogue it gives is adorable too!

 

[Calysis]

Windfall!

I got the name from The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. Windfall Island is one of my favorite islands on the game, and I liked the name enough to use it for my island.

 

[Feferily]

Tsuchinoko! It's the big chumby snake that brings me the most joy! I'm also trying to make an outfit to have some villagers rep the chubby snake cryptid pride!

 

[Anj2k6]

Without going into too much personal detail, I named mine Serene .

It's my safe word I use for calming down during my EMDR sessions or whenever I feel anxious, so I felt it was appropriate since Animal Crossing has always been a game I go to during difficult times.
