What are you planning to name your island?

It was between Purgatory and Parabellum, and I've decided on Parabellum.
 
I?ve decided on Licorice or Liquorice.

Probably gonna go with Liquorice though as I like the q in it. Seeing as my theme will be predominantly dark, spooky & gloomy in most areas, I thought the name suits as some people like liquorice, others don?t. Same goes for horror. Plus, liquorice is sold in multiple colours too.
 
I'd like to call my island either "Castaway Cay" (real life Disney resort island) or "Danger Island" (name of island in Banana Splits TV show from the '70s), but that depends on how much room they give us for our island name.
 
I've decided now that either Altas, Maris, or Stormalong should be the name of my island.
The first two sound really nice in my head, while the third is a reference to Flapjack.
 
I've done a lot of thinking and have a huge list, but I have settled on "Pyewacket" :)
I am pretty confident we will have a larger character limit due to seeing a player character named Demetrius. If for some reason we don't, I do have many backups, but I have definitely got my heart set on this name! I even got a custom sticker of it made to put on my journal. :)
 
what are you naming your island?

i know this is probably a thread that's been made a thousand times already, but i'm curious what other people plan on naming their islands, and more importantly, the reason why.

i'm going to name my island magnolia, partly because i name all my towns after flowers, and partly because "the isle of magnolia" and "magnolia island" both sound very pretty to me. if i for some reason get another switch, whether it be a switch lite or just a normal switch, i don't know what i'm going to name it... maybe hibiscus? that'd be nice!
 
Willoughby...after my favorite 60s Twilight Zone episode "A Stop at Willoughby" . It's a peaceful small town station stop on a train line that SPOILER....

ends up being a version of heaven/the afterlife.
I have had to abbreviate it Willowby in past versions of the game but with 10 letters confirmed I can finally use the full name.

"Olympus" to go with my Greek mythology theme.

ooh! i've never done any themed towns before. that's going to be fun, especially with the new terrain and outdoor tools.

oh! i actually really like the twilight zone. i don't remember that episode off the top of my head, but it sounds really good. there's a couple episodes that are my favorites, but for some reason i can never remember the titles of them.
 
Either Rosepool (the name I used for my New Leaf town) or something different. Now that it's confirmed that the name can be 10 characters long, I may think about a new name now.
 
I don't know yet. ;__; That's been one of the hardest things for me to figure out. I've been trying to find something that invokes an island with a peaceful, maybe slightly overgrown forest but nothing has really clicked with me

Maybe something with grove worked in?
 
After much much much deliberation I've decided on Summersalt. A play on words on somersault flip.
It's fresh, dreamy, and my mom likes it so. :cool:

Your flower theme is really cute, I think Magnolia makes a beautiful island name.

I've finally decided on Lumeria (lou merry uh).

It's just a name I made up and it means "Light of the Sea"

The salt play works well for an ocean vibe
 
I have been thinking about two, "Nowhere" because I think it's a pretty nice name for an island, and it's also a reference to a game I really like (Mother 3) and Andromeda as a reference to the Andromeda Galaxy, and I think it's a pretty nice name, but I am still unsure of the name tho.
