    I support all of bobs names, mostly because I care fairly little.

    Then I still call dibs on estapora.

    World Map edited and reposted in the original post with BoB's continent names. If anyone has objections to any of these names, just let me know.

    Should we name seas and oceans or leave them open?

    I think the seas and oceans should be named now, as they're more apart of Eizon than any one country or continent. However, there's no reason why each area couldn't have a nickname for these places.

    I think there are 4 areas of water that need names.

    ??? - SW of Dulake, NW of Estapora, SE of Spariva, NE of Baroke
    ??? - SE of Dulake, E of Shiny Islands, W of Amano, N of Cennora
    ??? - N of Amano, S of Amano, S of Cennora, SW of Baroke
    ??? - Area between Amano and Spariva

    I'm assuming that the world loops around and is spherical so when you cross the east boundary, you end up on the west side of the map.

    Only issue I have is that Lake Nyudo isn't actually a lake!
    Would Nyudo Strait work as well? Though I'm not even sure "strait" is the correct term for a body of water like that.

    Could always call it good old Delta Bay. Is it a bay?

    I think we have a winner! Bay works for me. Delta or Nyudo? I don't mind either.

    I'll go ahead and use Nyodu to stick with the theme for now unless someone objects. Updating the original post now; we're just about ready to start creating characters and cities!
