Default Re: Banestorm Ytarria Map - Town Names?

Thanks, Phil! I appreciate the quick and honest answer! :) I figured it might be something like that, and I certainly don't mind filling in blanks myself, especially since names are the element I'm most likely to customize to taste in any fantasy setting, flavorful things that they are. But there's that annoying part of my brain that always protests, "But what if there is an OFFICIAL version?"

And thanks for the name generators, Stormcrow! That'll come in handy.

What I've done for personal names in Yrth is take the lists of names I found on Kate Monk's Onomastikon and run them through Sean Puckett's Word Combiner to create fusions that convey a fantastic-yet-familiar flavor. After so many centuries of varied cultures mingling as a result of the Banestorm, I figured there would be a lot of crossover.
