Polling the name of the Game World
🕑 Added 2022-09-21 06:00:00 +0000 UTCSo many great suggestions, folks! I value all of your contributions :)
Here's a list of the ones that stand out to me. Let's see what the votes are over the next week or two. I will, of course, reserve the right to pick the name regardless of the outcome - but it will be interesting to see where the community lands on this!

"Aonair" is a Napa winery. 😅

Make sure you search the interwebs for whatever you pick! Never know if it's already used, or a curse in some other language.

Mostly because of random tables in the Perilous Wilds :)
Can I ask if you have some kind of a connection to the Finnish language? Or is it just a coincidence that we encounter quite often Finnish names and words, in this case Yksin and in the show Cpt. Nikula.

I went with Mundas Yor’Um but also like Shattered Lands and Broken Empire, they all raise a lot of questions which is cool and evocative. Whatever fuels your imagination to make more stories!

Why pick 1? Top 3 win! Using the "Dead Empires" approach we could have a name 'known Today', a name that was its former name, and another name that was its former name lost to history. This is Matt Colville tip: 3 Dead Empires; search his YT channel I don't have it handy.

This is a powerful vote. The name will have great potential to inspire how the game will unfold.

Naming things can be one of the toughest things to do in any creative sense, so it’s a joy to see the process be able to be crowd sourced in a way. I’m curious as well as where the taste falls, as there were plenty of excellent breaks from tropes.

I like "Mirrored Reaches" although it doesn't really roll off the tongue... ;)

Difficult to choose just one, but we have seen a lot of evidence of once-great powers that have disappeared in various parts of this world, so the Broken Empire strikes a chord.

Word of warning to those using the android app for Patreon: you can press to vote but the app won't show that you voted. So you can accidentally tap on a wrong vote. Fortunately you can re-vote and the website version works well.
