Country Name

So...what is the name of our country going to be....

Everyone post suggestions here...me and Duck will take the top 5 or 10 and post a poll tomorrow.

My suggestions......

Strogren (Yeah...I know it blows.)

(We should also get a flag too....so graphics artists...keep that in mind. )

I was going to suggest Cornflander (the land of the cornflandians or cornflanders), but our modest Duck said in another thread he was going to have a city named after him (as is Corn probably), and that this was enough.

Anyway, a not very creative one would be Fanaticland.

I don't know about a name, but I'll try and come up with a flag.

How's this for a first try? I'll get something different if you don't like it.

Kind of looks like your crossing something out.
Try and make it smaller. And it's best to wait until we pick a name first....incase the name MEANS something....then the flag should reflect.

But keep it up!

El Prezo Ducky I, has given us the inspiration, "to seek out and go where no man has gone before"... errr sorry, that was William Shatner. Anyway, El Prezo's inspiring words should inspire us to an inspired choice of name for our 'soon to be great' nation.

The name of our nation should conjure a vision, be a beacon and a haven for the oppressed, downtrodden and those feeling a bit vomity.

Fanfare, drum roll, andycapp suggests - Utopia

Well, I'll suggest a flag for each name, if you want.

Something simple for Utopia:

Why not PEKKALANDIA?!
I've got a perfect flag for it, too!

(For more info about Pekkalandia please go to http://koti.mbnet.fi/forster )

Oh, it's just a suggestion (spam)

I had another draft of the flag, that also had the 'F'.

I'm not sure which one's best, though.

You'll change your mind. Don't matter about the name, but here's the flag:

As you can see, Pekkalandia is an Communistical Anarchistic National-socialistic Democracy -nation.

It wants to make clear that it isn't against other-coloured nor rasisct.

Thumbs down The big Mac represented in the flag? You must be from a different planet...

The logo of a multi-national corporation like McDonalds forming part of a flag for a so called "communistical anarchistical national-socialistic democracy" - truly bizarre!

I'll pass on the Big Mac, just give me the french fries!

Not for a Martian! :alien:

I actually agree with Juize [andycapp checks his temperature] your flag is a bit complex Corn - simplicity in a nations symbols are preferable.
