Red face What's your inspiration?

Id like to know everybody's town names and why you chose them
Just for fun, i thought it could be interesting
What was your inspiration?
Was it you thought of a random name or does it have more meaning?
My 2 towns Ivy and Chelsea
They were dogs of mine whom I loved very, very much

Now your turn

Agave, Reposado, Anejo, Blanco, Plata - you can probably connect the dots and figure out my liquor of choice.

Neverwhere = Based on a Neil Gaiman novel
Melmac = Alf's home planet
Skaro = Home planet of the Dalek's
Caprica = Home planet from Galactica

Re: What's your inspiration?

Squintroplis= Who doesn't want a town named after them?
Rock Bottom= A sad little rock town.
Sulfs Up= sunny sulfur town on the beach.
Polis Sausage= Probably should have stayed just polis

I guess I like having the resource in the name; although polis sausage actually produces low grade crystal so go figure. Guess I'm lacking proper inspiration.

Aydindril 'sword of truth'
Vinitta 'mermory sorrow and thorn'
Kwanitupul 'mermory sorrow and thorn'
Ansis Pelippe 'mermory sorrow and thorn'

Two new places will probably be lord of the rings towns but I have not go to name them because they are being built right now.
