If you haven't chosen one yet:

Mont Sainte Aquinas - for Saint Thomas Aquinas

Seneca - after the "Roman Stoic, said that perfect prudence is indistinguishable from perfect virtue."

More later.

I understand that the selection took place this morning, but having just found this post, in the off chance that you're still looking...

I suggest you call this city New Cove. There are countless real-world examples of old cities being abandoned only so new one could be placed right beside them, after great fires or devastating disasters of any kind. New Cove is a simple name, yes, but in that way it would allow you to mesh with the game's lore in a way that most generic fantasy-type city names will never match.

Contest is now closed. PoV will take all current entries and narrow them down to our three favorites. There will then be a server wide poll for the best name. If your name(or part of it) is chosen, you will receive 100k. Thanks to everyone who submitted names.

So we asked people to vote ? that's not rigging a poll, we didn't force anyone to do anything.
