View Full Version : Nation Name Approval
DaveShack Mar 01, 2005, 11:53 PM Friends, we need to finalize a decision on our national identity before the game can be created. Interest in naming died out a couple of days ago, so I present to you without further comment the proposal which got the most interest.
Name: Citizens
Formal: Fanatannia
Noun: Fanatannians
Adjective: Fanatanian
Title: The Great

Provolution Mar 02, 2005, 06:40 AM adjective Fanatannian
I guess it was a typo
Donovan Zoi Mar 02, 2005, 07:55 AM Even though this spelling goes against the rules of English pronunciation (double consonant is rarely ever preceded by Long A [AY] ), it is indeed based on the spelling of Britannia. :confused:
So, I'm down wit it and stuff. U numsayin'? :cool:
RegentMan Mar 02, 2005, 08:55 AM I don't like the title, nor the name. Unfortunately, I don't know of any alternates. Perhaps we could find something British and put a DG-twist on it? King _______ ?

..........Zoichester? I like it! :D
I didn't see the Citizens part either, but I guess I am neutral on it.
So, it will read The Great Citizens of Fanatannia. That's not so bad.

That's the idea -- Chieftess posted a sample of what it would look like in the discussion thread.
thescaryworker Mar 02, 2005, 08:51 PM Half the time I forget the name of the civ I'm playing, :crazyeye: so at least its better than most names I could come up with.
*Satis Mar 02, 2005, 11:19 PM Name: Citizens
Formal: Fanatannia
Noun: Fanatannians
Adjective: Fanatannian (notice the double n)
Title: The Great
Is fine by me. Why would a Fanatannian citizen be a Fanatanian?
Double N Double N please

Title: Archroy
Just thought I'd provide some sort of weird pronunciation alternative.
Magnificent_Cow Mar 03, 2005, 09:42 PM If our title is "The Great," then won't we have "We Love The The Great" days instead of "We Love The King" days? Or am I just confused?
Strider Mar 03, 2005, 09:45 PM Don't really care for all of these Fana' names, so I voted no. I would have prefered something historical.
