Name our home island!
Exploration of our home island is complete, and it is nearly settled. The time has come to give our home a name. Please put your suggestions in this thread. After awhile....we will take some of the better ideas and make a poll.
Also we might want to rename the 2 newest cities on our contient, since they seem um....a little weird.

Pulling from the hat:
Apolyton Island
Central Island
Homeland
The Hub
Mother Apolytonia
Especially renaming of that "Paha Sapa" city is in order. "Paha" is the Finnish word for "Evil". Baaad omen.

Paha Sapa happens to be where your president grew up... 
Apparently, I should be glad Suomi is not spoken there. Who knows what sort of complexes I might have?  
As for Fishy, well, okay. That name can change with no complaints from me!

How about mythology?
Or deriving from the shape of the island?
Eridanos
Kastalia
Latifundium
Olympia
maybe Ultimate (in English or other languages)
(Apolyton = Greek for ultimate)
