Suggestion Box: Restaurant, Inn, and Tavern Names!
🕑 Added 2022-03-20 19:00:04 +0000 UTCHi guys, going to try something new today instead of our usual standby naming polls! Right now I'm opening this post up for anyone to toss in some Blest/fantasy-appropriate restaurant, inn, or tavern names that they may come up with! Sometimes I'm in the middle of writing a conversation between the characters and an offhand comment like, "Let's have a drink at the ____," or "We're meeting at _____ later, are you coming along?" These are the tiniest, most random moments, but sometimes I break myself out of the momentum of the conversation by having to go, "Shoot, what's a good tavern name??" and totally blanking! Sometimes I reuse names and locations, of course, like the Wolves' Den near the Shepherds' compound, but sometimes that's not feasible (say if the characters are in a different city).
So I had a galaxy brain moment and was like, what if I compiled a ready-to-go list of up-for-grab names to refer to and use in these situations?
But then my dumbass kept drawing a blank, anyway, and I was like, "A list is a lot, I don't think I'm creative enough to come up with that many on the spot..."
So I thought I'd open it up to any suggestions you might have! Keep in mind that this isn't a guarantee that your suggestion will be used, just that it will be part of a list I might refer to when needed (or, more accurately, a hat I'll randomly pick a slip of paper out of)! The names can be funny and punny, serious and epic, fancy or seedy, whatever you like, so long as it's feasible for the world of Blest!
Some examples:
- The King's Rest
- Spirits' Gate (for a bar, get it, because "spirits"...)
- The Crow's Nest
- The Halfway Inn
- Honey and Clover (restaurant)
- Corn and Flower (restaurant)
You get the idea! Feel free to specify what your suggestion is for (restaurant, inn, tavern, etc.) and leave them in the comments below! If you guys like the suggestion box format, I'll open it for other stuff in the future, as well, including a Chandry-specific thing for next chapter! π

A few from my DnD campaign. The Half & Whole. A tavern run by a retired soldier that has lost both legs, and his wife. The Weary Wanderer. The only inn on a thousand miles stretch between two city states. The Jolly Sober. A tavern in a city where alcohol is illegal.
