Slightly OT - Interesting planet names
I am always having problems thinking up names to call my planets. I do not like just calling them "Cephedri II" or whatever.
Thought it would be useful to those of us with aspirations for the realism of the game is people posted some of the cool planet names they use
Most of mine are called 'New' something where that something is a city or town eg New Basra, New Washington, New Paris etc
others I use are
Atlantis
Dagon
Starfall
Hermes
Avalon
Osiris/Horus
Asgard/Vanaheim
Eden
Kingdom
Dagda
Anyone else have an interesting run no what they do

Re: Slightly OT - Interesting planet names
Be careful when renaming planets, other players will see the new names even if they don't have precense in the system and identify them immediately as your colonies.

Re: Slightly OT - Interesting planet names
Andres, cheers for the tip.
My military bases in frontier systems remain anonymous. These are names I use for my benign colony worlds and if an alien race knows about these, then I am probably already at war with him

Any ancient race will know about them even if they are clear across the map. If they are evil, then they can plot a beeline straight to your soft innards. If you are more evil than them, you will have thought of this and these renamed worlds are really the honey that coats your trap.

Bman, see any of the strategy threads abot how I defend my planets..
.... I am undeniably nasty and sneaky... I am also a lawyer which combination makes me possibly one of the most evil things on this planet after macaroni cheese and line dancing
