New Island Name Help

[Rex of Elysium]

Well, as I posted a bit ago, I accidently deleted my Island, when I meant to delete a different game. After having some time to calm down, I decided to swap my plans for New Leaf and New Horizons. New Leaf will be rebuilt with my RWBY theme, and New Horizons will have my Sailor Moon theme.

However, I have run into a bit of an issue. I need a name for the island. I have come up wth several, but not sure what to pick. Which of these do you think is the best name to go with?

1. Moon - Simple and to the point

2. Eclipse - A moon themed name

3. Umbra - Another moon themed name'

I am not reallyy going to theme the villagers themselves, just get a few of my favorites like Hans.

Anyway, please let me know which of three names is the best one.

I really like Umbra because is has a nice ring to it and is more unique than the other names. it also has a nice ring to it

Why not just call it Sailor Moon?

Umbra sound nicer than Eclipse to me, and more like a town/Island than Moon.

(Penumbra is also a nice variation on that, if you like longer names)

Because as a destination it just sounds kind of weird to me. It fits a character, though I will be using their real names. Usagi, Ami, Rei, etc.

I presume there are place names in Sailor Moon?

Sailor Moon isn't like Naruto or Dragon Ball Z, where there is a completly fictional world. For the most part it's based on real world Tokyo. The only exceptions are a place in the past; The Silver Millenium, which is too long for sure, and a place 1000 years in the future; Neo Crystal Tokyo, which is also to long. I could shorten it and go with Crystal Tokyo, and it MIGHT fit. But I feel a Moon-themed name would be the best fit, since the way I am making the characters is in their teen years as they were for most of the story, not the far off future.

What about Crescent then? A Crescent Moon is before a Full Moon, and you could say, for example, that this is before the events of the show. So then, they'd be at their own Crescent stage, as it were. I hope this makes sense.

No, the show takes place DURING their teenage years, and THAT is what I plan to use for them. There is some stuff involving the future in season 2, but that's not the focus, it's the series and what took place for most of it. I really just don't 'feel' the name Crescent, honestly. It sounds cool for sure, but not really sure.

I could also having it be AFTER the events of the show, because there is no major time skip (the stuff with the future is via time travel). If so it's only a year or two at most at the end. In fact, that would likely be what I go with.

After giving it a lot of thought, and looking at the poll and comments, I am going to be naming the island Umbra. Also something....interesting about the island. Sailor Moon is a superhero, not just a magical girl, it is pretty cool, that when I finally got Mira to start with I got a fellow superhero villager, Kid Cat!
