I'll add "Aphaea" as a suggestion for the Greek areas...

Chaos, I'll have to look at how many subsectors I have left in that section. I actually used words with some meaning, translated to Greek, then "aged". We can definitely save any extras for systems, though. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Chaos: Ms. Ippi is a very private person... there are no known pictures of her, but the Paparazzi keep trying.
As for the pronunciation, it would actually be "mizIPPI", so it would indeed sound like a ladies name...
Other suggestions for "random" names:
Gewel (aged spelling of Jewel)
Casta-Gilion (a double habitable planet system)
Runner's Luck
Calamity
Rashdon (aged spelling of Crashdown)
Arrakis (gotta have Dune)
Masada (Jewish Fortress)
Atari (yes, the video game)
Nesia (shortened from Indonesia - a watery world)
Hellgate (originally "Hell's Gate")

Phalacksis, perhaps?
Thousides, Nosus and Marethan for Greek. Parsagada, Sardas and Permpeita.

I don´t speak Greek, so I´ll have to resort to old legends. Some of these names do sound rather poetic, though. I like poetic-sounding names.

Let's not forget the odd ship Captains that would rather name worlds for his pet hamster rather than use the list of names provided by the OverGovernment...
Petunia, Frisky, Constance, Deadfall, Howdydudee, Notherone, Primus Prime etc...

What about (tongue planted firmly in cheek):
Macedon
Mesoniin
Mycenae
MyPlace
iScapePod
Ghillie-Gonziland [img]smile.gif[/img]
On a (slightly) more serious side, nearly every sector has its Tarsus, Clarke and Starfall (some may even have more than one!), and of course those worlds each have a town named Springfield and a body of water called Mud Lake...

Having said that...
Ahem, gentleman! [img]graemlins/alpha.gif[/img]
Let's not get ahead of ourselves (at least ahead of me!), and let's focus on names for all those lettered subsectors. We have a great slew of names here, some of which make for decent subsector names. Please tag them to a letter designator from the grid. I will post an updated file, soon, I promise.
