Danish words:
Refugium?
Asyl?

Nabe?


Yath?

Asylum sounds inspiring to me. Perhaps a Mashup of the word with “city” in a fantasy language. Like asylummar (Mashup of asylum and Ogrimmar, I didn’t run that through any fantasy language, just been playing WoW lately. For the horde!)

I like the plays on words like hub, nexus, origin, core, etc

Here’s some random thoughts:

  • Kore (pronounced ko-ray, not core, to make that less obvious? :P)
  • Ori
  • Kentro
  • Riza

Also a fan of Kovah

Ori pops out for me.

It is a damn good game

Could you guys post translations if a name is in another language.

I lIke the names like hub, nexus, origin, core, because they sound obviously a capital. So new comers would see the name and be like, I should go there. Then be like oh wow this is what you can do with Oort I am totally playing this game forever. :smile:

Ah, yeah!

Kentro: center in greek
Riza: root in greek

I have it, lets just build a big ass tree in the middle of the city and call it ‘‘Yggdrasil’’ Problem solved! screw the fact that it is in a desert! trees!!!

The tree saps the life from the planet and that’s why it’s a desert!

Awesome I love Greek, I use it to name stuff all the time.

I kind of wish there was an oort language that we could use.

I don’t know if the devs are planning on making one, if not they should out source it to the community, I would totally be up for helping to make one.

I love it!!! And I have a idea. I’m still thinking that bridges is the best way to go,if there are builds on more than one mountain. The trees roots could be the bridges.

Let’s be the start of a new Oort language,you said it you self. You want a Oort language,so why not make one. And if that’s too much,then just make up a Oort word for capital.id love to help.

I know I brought it up but I don’t want it to devert the thread. I am going to make another thread about making an oort language.

Sounds good,provide a link.

How about ‘The Heart’? Or I was thinking Core :smile: but that was already said, or maybe some sort of different configuration of Focus? Was also thinking Gem or along those lines like the Gem of Oort because it is the players working (hopefully) together to build a universal capital.
