CNO Poll: Captured City Renaming

Following the two day discussion, this issue has reached a poll. The problem is what to do when we have captured enemy cities, gained them through culture, etc. In the last demogame, in which we captured every city, they were renamed from the list (rather than anything related to the prior name), though this was a bit confusing. This time around, we have not had any official policy, and this will set it. The choices are:

-Leave the city names. Example: Allegheney stays Allegheney.
-Make the names sound Japanese. Example: Allegheney becomes Alligani.
-Rename them in the order listed. Example: Allegheney becomes Regent Town (should that be next on the list).
-Change the city names according to Sir Donald III's proposal. Example: once Allegheney gets a majority of Japanese citizens, it becomes Regent Town (should that be next on the list)

The poll is public, and runs for two days. An abstain obtion has been included for Ravensfire.

In most proposals (unless otherwise stated) exceptions would be made for wonder cities, capitals, and refoundations.

The City Naming Office endorses making the names sound Japanese, for the following reasons:
-It maintains cultural and language regularity.
-It keeps the names sounding the same, so not too much confusion is caused.
-It's realistic.
-It shows that we've occupied it should it be retaken.
-It would not apply to refoundations.

Discussion on this issue. It is highly recommended that you read this thread, and the earlier discussion thread, before voting. An educated public makes for a good democracy.

I encourage ALL citizens to vote for "Rename them in the order on the list"
if you vote for this, there is a greater change your city name to be used!!!

rename them to more japanese sounding names to keep with the theme but only after they get enough jap citizens.

Epi, you didn't add the option of keeping important cities (wonder cities) and capitals as they are and rename the rest..

I did say that that's assumed for the two list systems.

What about rename everything but capitals (only) using the list?

Rename them from the list

If necessary a multi-choice poll will be held to determine what to name.

*looks at results*

I never should've polled this.

Well, renaming wins in a landslide, not surprisingly. The CNO is now starting a discussion on what exceptions should be made to this rule, if any.
