Poll to Change the New Map Name

[Epicethan4 948]

I don't like the new map name. It ends with 'ass' for one and isn't catchy enough to keep repeating. Map names like Aevos, Axios, Arcas etc etc run off the tongue quite easy, but with 'Azuras' it is simply too much. It's also very close to 'Azura' from Elder scrolls. I could not imagine myself comfortably saying 'Azuras' for the entire 2+ years or so that we are on this map, and want something easier and simpler to say.

 

I hereby petition for the name to be changed, or rather, just giving the opportunity to gauge the LOTC publics opinion on the name. I just don't like it

I agree that the name needs to be changed.

We need to drop the S.

arcadia a big meme in dwarven community, but it was a better name than azuras. Azura (without the s) would be better

Can we skip naming realms with letter a and go with B instead. We call it Bazurass

[KeiaTypeBeat 3277]

Is Azuras not pronounced the same way Arcas is? I'm not pronouncing it Azurass lol

asura is a daemon, I can already hear the confusion from here... Asura vs azura

Just name it what you want IC, don’t let the cloud temple monks dictate what you roleplay.

Unpopular opinion, it seems, but I don't mind the name; speak it with a small accent, or put more emphasis on the second vowel - ah-zUUr-rass - and it sounds quite fantasy-esque. 

On another note, a quick google search finds that azura (asura?) translates to good luck in Japanese, and "is a feminine given name of Old Persian origin, also found in Arabic, Latin, and French, meaning "lapis lazuli," "blue semi-precious stone," "sky blue," or "heaven"". I'm not sure where the s comes from and I would definitely love to hear the breakdown of the name from the admins/storyteam/whoever named new map themselves. 

As it is, I think it's kinda pretty in a guttural vocalization and the underlying meanings (to how I have taken them to be) spell good fortune for the stories to come.

If you are digging A, Z, & U as the first three letters, we can name the map Azuwayda.

I don't appreciate my name being plagiarized.
