This poll is based on the discussion found here. (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=52323) Choose all names that you would like. The top 5 or so will be put into a run-off poll.

I voted all that had an Elemental name (IE names that sound simmiler to Chemical Elements) Not sure why, but I guess it is easyer to remember the name :).

I just hope one of the Names is chosen so I can finaly Remove the "Unnamed" portion of my Location to one of the names above :)

I like Fanatica. As eloquently stated (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?postid=960138#post960138) in the name suggestion thread, it has the history of both previous games. It sounds good. It has instant recognition.

EDIT: Added link.

Perhaps you can post a link to it so others can see why we must be now and forever FANATICA

Yup, 'Fanatica' for me also. No other name can steal my heart. ;)

We are 'CivFanatics' anyway...

Fanaticium all the way. That's Fanatic(i)um, with an "i", not that other one. ;) It's located in the middle of our choices, not at the top.

This name sounds the most Roman. There is going to be a runoff for the top 4-5 choices, right?

Fanaticum is the best of these options, IMO. Why would we pick Fanatica if Fanaticum is more Roman sounding and makes the most sense to our civilization?

Fanatica would be more in line with Roman country names than Fanaticum. That latter one would more likely be a city name.

Brittania
Gallicia

vs.

Londinium
Camulodunum

The other popular choices do not have the same resonance as Fanatica. It has that authenticity which the others just do not. Countries in the Roman period always ended in an a . Since we want to have a genuine Roman theme to our game, Fanatica is the logical choice. Lets us keep up the tradition of being Fanatics in Fanatica.
So citizens who have not yet voted I urge you to vote for FANATICA.
