Was brought up at our last meeting that a possible name change is warranted. While I am not entirely against a name change I agree with the fact mentioned by Semhut that New Acropolis has been around for a long time. That taken with the fact that we have 2 guilds in the city and naming it pro one guild, ( such as City of LIGHT) would possibly alienate some members of dawn (current or future) If a name change is to be suggested I would personally like to see it incorporate the unity of the 2 guilds. Somehow reflecting the fact that we are 1 guild in essence. Naming the city Dawn of Light as was suggested at the meeting is not what this means. Dawn of Light is actually the full name of DWN, and personally I dont think its a suitable name for a city. My thoughts would be somewhere along the lines of Daybreak or Sunrise, something that is Light related and Dawn related. Again I am happy to retain the name of New Acropolos. I waited for someone else to post this, but as it is supposed to be talked about at our next meeting and hasnt been mentioned here, i thought i'd kick it off. Knock yourselves out.

I vote for: Diluculo(Latin for dawn) I like it. That's good, but what about "Lumen Diluculo"? It means "Light Dawn"

I still think it should be City of Light, not because it is our guild name but because it is what we are. We are the light side they are the dark side. Dawn of Light is on the light side so it would still fit for them.

These are all good suggestions, I cant say I dislike any of them, I particularly like the latin suggestions though...

LIke I said in the meeting I think it should stay New Acropolis. The city has been around for a long time and I dont think we need to be that overt in the advertisement for our guilds.

How about "Beautiful Sun Shinny Happy City of Bright Light in the Dawn" What do you think? Incorporates both guild names too. ;D

New Acropolis is perfectly fine, and to change the city's name seems pointless, unless DWN would like it changed themselves. If that's the case, than I suggest Sunrise. It takes into account the light being brought up during dawn, and although it's not as uber as the Latin (which I find awesome), everyone who plays SWG knows what sunrise means. I'm just saying it for when new people come to the city and no one knows what it means, they don't say: I don't know what it means, personally it sounds wierd to me.
