What are you planning to name your island?

[MeganPenguin]

My town on acnl is called Penguin after my favourite animal... I'm not sure get what I'll call my new Island. Niugnep? Idekkk
Probably best to start thinking now because it'll take me ages to think of a name.

I do hope the character limit is increased as well. I'll likely name my island "Wakuwaku", like almost every town I've made so far. It's become a tradition for me in a way. The word translates from Japanese as "trilling", or "exciting". As repetitive as that sounds, I find it adorable when starting up a game each time.

I'm planning to name mine Vylbrand.

My island will probably be called "Aquamarina", but if the name can have only 8 letters, then just "Aquarina".

Thanks for stating the obvious , 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.

It has winter and snow and pine trees. Tropical islands do not get snow.

I'm thinking of sticking to the town name I've had since WW which is Zendwell

Either that or picking the name of a Pokemon town (Floaroma) or naming it Stardew after Stardew Valley

...Or just coming up with something besides those three...

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.

Just seen this! Wow I'm super jealous ₍ᐢ⸝⸝? ̫ ?⸝⸝ᐢ₎
Well make sure to post some lovely screenshots in the future! I'd love to see your islands!!! (๑˃͈꒵˂͈๑)

Correct!

•Tropical islands have only two seasons!• NH has 4.

I agree, this is most definitely a temperature island but with much better weather than my island! -And the ability to sustain tropical plants due to a warmer climate. If only I could move to my future AC island for real!!! I'm super cold right naow ｡ﾟ( ﾟஇ‸இﾟ+)ﾟ｡

I'm the worst when it comes with the names, so I started planning early. Originally, I wanted something that meant something or had a meaning everyone knew, but I realized that always caused my downfall in NL.

First, I started to settle on Sagitta (Latin for Arrow) but it became confusing on how to say it and I just didn't want to spend the time correcting everyone on how to say it. I tried mixing Sagitta with other words, but had no luck.

It wasn't until I came across Rijeka (A place in Croatia) and for some reason, I really liked how it sounded, but I still wanted my own original twist. After mixing Sagitta with it, I got Reketta (replaced a few letters afterwards) as it looked better somehow. It means absolutely nothing (as for as I know), but I still like it. I keep saying it is a fictional island between Italy and Croatia cause that is where I keep imagining it would be.

I guess in a way it works out because we get to build the island from nothing to something and maybe that is what I get to do with the name as well, turn it to something.

"Jabberwock" if the limit is increased, not sure if it isn't. Maybe "Dismal"

The more I think about it, the more I like Arcadia for my island name. Yeah, the RL region of Arcadia in Greece is on a peninsula, not an island, but the name has been synonymous with "utopia" in many pieces of poetry and litterature for a super long time. And I want it to be an idyllic island, so... it fits.

 

[Aubrey895]

Lol I’m worried when I get the game I still won’t be able to decide lol. I can’t think of anything I like.

 

[ShadowsGirl9]

I'm currently leaning towards Lacuna! c:

 

[Aesthetics]

i might do Chevalia, in memory of one of my first ever town names.
however, i think Iris Bay is pretty cool. i have a town named that atm.

 

[Kaireevee]

Pretty sure the last name I recall having was Avalon but I don't like that anymore so I am STUCK

 

[Byebi]

Please give us 9-10 characters oh my god...
I want "lychee" in the name somewhere but that's already 6 characters so it's kinda difficult to come up with something cute if 8 characters is the maximum

 

[OldHag]

Decided a while ago that it?d be Lonesome. It?s a homage to my favorite Connie Converse song that starts with ?In between two tall mountains, there?s a place they call lonesome, don?t see why they call it lonesome, I?m never lonesome when I go there.?

Thought it perfectly describes how visiting my AC village feels :?-))

 

[Zirken Achiroda]

Well, knowing myself and my terrible skill with names, it will probably be Mononoke, as a nod to the private guilds me and my friends make in online games xD

Or might call it Achiroda... but Achiroda Island sounds a bit selfabsorbed when my OCs name is Zirken Achiroda.

 

[Fuzzysaurus Rex]

Been a while since I've visited TBT. Nice to be back. I'll probably go with Mistvale/veil again unless I have sme sort of name epiphany.

 

[Romaki]

After some thoughts and googling I think I might name my island after Lehua Island. I was looking at hawaiian islands for ideas and this one immediately spoke to me. I researched it further to know more about the name and it was all very interesting.

Spoiler: a crescent shaped island that's a seabird sanctuary, named after a flower from folklore

I'm not completely sure yet, but I thought I'd share it in case anyone else liked the idea of that. It seems perfect for Animal Crossing.

 

[Bluebellie]

Im still here trying to find a nice town name that matches with the 8 characters that we will be able to play.
Too many possibilities and options.
