This is a thread where everyone can propose a name for the continent where Gladius is on, as well as the whole planet.

To prevent any name from being overlooked, post it in big red letters.

Once we have enough names, I'll open a public poll where everyone can vote. If your proposal wins, I'll give you 5 credits. Very important is that you do not pick a name that already exists somewhere!

Have fun :)

Oooo fun.

Continent: Tersia

Planet: Ineth

More or less random names, not derived from anything that I know of. Which makes them all the more unique, which is good for Gladius, eh?

Fun indeed. Now, if I can just keep myself from proposing the name I used for my own world in those stories I've written...

Continent: Ingara

World: Elirimar

Hey, I managed :D .

For those interested, both are derivations of Quenya Elvish - "Elirimar" is a hodgepodge of "Elerína", which means "star-crowned", and "Ambar", which means "earth" or "world"; and "Ingara" is a hodgepodge of "Ingolë", which means "deep lore" or "magic", and "aranië", which means "kingdoms".

Here's a Proposal...

Continent: Dimica

World: Experiorus

(Continent Name based off of latin word "dimicatio" which means a fight, struggle, or battle.)
(Planet Name based off of latin word "experior" meaning to put to the test)

Continent: EosiaEosia is the name of the main continent in David Eddings' Elenium, and thus ineligible.

Thusly my suggestions have "veiled" meanings.

Continent: Cocotian

World: ... Caterane

... what? Sounds more like a world name than person's name to me.

World: ... Caterane


Ok, Book5 won. You may stop posting :D

Lots of places are named after the person that found them, and it has a ring to it.

:D Not kidding... I don't like sylable salad names... for places. People names are ok ;)

Well, since "Gladius" is Latin for "Sword", I propose:

Continent: Latronis (hired servant or mercenary)

World: Praelior (to do battle)

Edit: Since "Cocotian" is losing for Continent name, and I kind of like the idea, I propose Coconovia for the world.

I am recovering from surgery or else I would come up with more options along these lines. If anyone else wants to pursue this, be my guest.

The search for a name for the planet goes on. You can now propose new names or you can edit your post and use the proposal for the continent also for the world to increase your chances.

The poll starts in 1-2 weeks.
