whats do you normally name your colony

[PookyJM]

My last colonie was "Mystery Lake" as there was a lake that was half into the mountain and a reference to a indie game named The long dark.
There was also "The pond"  wink at doctor who
It generaly inspired by local geographie and/or a reference to game/movie/book/etc. that i like

[Mattorious]

My most common name is "Shakespeare," from the Ender book series. Just has a nice ring to it.   

[EarthyTurtle]

I usually like to go with 'Drifters Sanctuary' for most standard cases. But if I feel like making a walled in tight security base designed to withstand assault for decades to come then I'll name it 'The Keep of Titanium'. But if I have full intent on going straight for starship then I will probably name it 'Citlalique' (It's the Aztec goddess of the stars according to google). Past names I've used include; Yulkia, The Damascus Plate, Amarath, Dome, Atrium, etc. If I think of a good name usually I'll make a colony for it.

[Necronomocoins]

I usually just put "ton" or "ington" on the end of the suggested name.

[DeltaV]

I tend to name it after whichever of my starting colonists I've grown most attached to. "______'s Peak" or "_____ston" or something.

[BassMonroe]

I like to name it "Militia Outpost" Or anything around that, Gives me a bit of story to work with as i like to imagine my colonists are from a Military organisation taking territory from the tribals + pirates.

[Coenmcj]

Usually Pheonix and then it's designation in Roman numerals.
I'm currently on Pheonix XLIV For instance.

Although when I get a bunch of bad asses it sometimes changes to "Bastion Hyperion" or "Hellsing Manor"
One time when I was using a few of the mechanoid mods I named the colony 'Deus ex machina'

It's interesting to see what and why everyone names their colonies, that's for sure.

[HologramDan]

usually if I build it into the side of a mountain, I give it a Dwarven flair, if i'm stuck with names New (places that already exist) like New Tokyo or New New York, my last one was New Sparta

[EscapeZeppelin]

I tend to name my colonies after elements. Neon, cobalt, zinc...

[Xerberus86]

Gravetown....cause that is what it well end up to be .

[keylocke]

my fave name is "Mos Eisley".. 'coz most of my colonists are criminals.

[IceWing]

Landing... 

Cause, you know.... SciFi originality and all...

[Ink.]

I usually name it after places from my favourite video games such as Dragonfall or Nosgoth.

Same. I was using names from like Grand Theft Auto. Los Santos survived for quite awhile.

But as I've become lazy on naming.
