What are you planning to name your island?

I don't have a name yet.

I for sure won't be naming it after any pop culture - my wild world town of Forks was kinda embarrassing after Twilight stopped being cool.

I'm gonna look at actual island names, I think, and see if anything jumps out. Or something floral - my NL town was Lilywood, and I always liked that name.

Wouldn't you consider it 2 or more islands? Northern Ireland is part of GB but it's not connected to England Scotland and Wales

That wasn't really the point of the post, but sure, the British Isles are temperate.
 
I'm not sure if I should name it like my town in WW "Zeist" or should go with another name because this time we have an island. If we would still have a town I'd name it Zeist again. Maybe the shops etc. will be in a separate area/town that we can also name, but this would leave me without a name for my island.

Northern Ireland is in fact not part of Great Britain because Great Britain is the name of the island England, Wales and Scotland are located on. Northern Ireland is a part of the UK though.

I?m thinking Arden, which is another name for Eden. Not sure how to spell it... Arden? Ardenn? Ardenne?
 
Island 1 Sunrise and Island 2 Sunset.

Sunrise Island will be played during the day with my online group.
Sunset Island will be a private island.
 
Possibly either Arden or Illyria for Shakespeare, Avonlea for Anne of Green Gables series or Papen for Pushing Daisies :)
Honestly agonising over town names is the only thing making me grateful that there's still 81 days to go

Have you got two Nintendo Switch consoles? (๑?o?๑)
 
Its not a tropical island - its a temperate island. Great Britain is an island, Nova Scotia, Greenland and Iceland...many many non-tropical islands. :)
Thanks for stating the obvious :lemon:, but in the game we will definitely live on a tropical island which is why I commented on that. We have coconuts and bananas, a white-sanded beach and loads of tropical insects and fish. It's definitely not the typical temperate island, not to mention a huge island that contains whole countries.

You could plant coconuts and bananas on your town's beach in New Leaf too, and got all sorts of tropical wildlife there during summer. Doesn't mean the town itself was tropical.

Plus we've seen in the previews that the island will get seasons.

I have 2 consoles. Bought a 2nd one after trying to trade pokemon in Let's Go with other players. Trading 11 pokemon took hours with other players. I was able to trade the complete dex with my 2 switches in less time.
 
For the island contest I quickly came up with the name "Floaroma" based on the flower-filled city in Pokemon DPPt, and now it's really growing on me, so I think that's what I'll name it. I'm sure it'll be just as flower-filled anyways :)
 
I wanna name mine Te Fitti from Moana, its just a very cute name from a great film.
 
Everyone is so creative with their town names ;w;

I need more time to come up with something I like..

I hope they extend the character limit! I have a list if so! If not, probably the usual.
 
Probably something like Koholint from Link's Awakening or I'll just meme around and name my island Denny's.
 
I wanted a Japanese name that meant something cute. It was between "Kodama" and "Koguma" but I went with "Koguma" which is bear cub in Japanese since I like most of the bear cubs. Vladimir is the only exception.
 
i'm gonna name it Leslie because it sounds nice :/ that and it sounds like the word
leisure (sort of? idk what im going for here).

not the most interesting tbh ahaha 😳
