A Call For Names

So I've written two and a half chapters of my book.  (Applause goes here.)  The thing is, though, that I think it's about time to stop calling things, "Small Kingdom," "Large Kingdom," "A Kingdom," "A City," "Another Kingdom," "Completely Different Kingdom,"- well, you get the idea.  And even though I've had a pretty good idea of the general location of things in my head, I also think it's time to map everything out for good. 

I had my brother-in-law, Eric, start to make a map over the weekend, but he only had about five minutes and not a lot of information to work with.  At least that was a start.  So I took what he started, and tried working on it last night, but I just didn't have the opportunity and time with having Rebecca crawl around and eat my papers, and having to put the kids to bed, then Becca to bed again and again.  (She has a pretty bad cold.)  Between times putting Becca to bed I told Brian that in order to work on my book I either need to stay up all night long, get up extremely early, or ignore the housework. 

Guess what I picked?  Option number 3!  I haven't even showered yet today (Don't worry Diane, I'll shower before the party tonight), and all I've eaten is cake, which is an entirely different story in itself that has to do with the dog diarrhea-ing twice in her kennel and me texting Brian to bring home chocolate cake.  He brought home the new tuxedo cake from Costco, and I've discovered that if you put your piece in the microwave for about 17 seconds it is just delicious.

Anyway, I downloaded AutoREALM mapping software and have been teaching myself how to use it all morning, and now I am finally putting my map together.  (I'm making mountains right now, and it's fun.)  And this is where you guys come in.  If you want to leave name ideas in a comment, it would help me out so much.  I have a few ideas for names of places, but I need a whole ton more.

First off, I guess you could say this is a fantasy book, but I don't want it to be a it's-hard-to-pronounce-anything type of book.  Whenever people ask me what type of book it is, the only real answer I can come up with is a Shannon Hale type of book.  She's her own genre for me.

What has before been referred to as "Small Kingdom" has a sort of Celtic feel to it in my mind, but I don't want to rip off Irish or Scottish words and just having them all get mad at me for butchering their language, and I also want it to have that Celtic feel, without people automatically thinking, "Ireland!"  Does that make sense?  Small Kingdom is also very farming and fishing oriented and is right by the ocean.

Large Kingdom is more military related, and it has a very Germanic feel to it.

The bad guy's kingdom I have no ideas about yet in that sort of way.

So I think I have the names for those kingdoms, but if someone comes up with something I like better, I'll replace it. I still need names for other kingdoms, cities, lakes, rivers, roads, oceans, etc.  Anything you can think of.  I'll get back to my mountains (oh, and the mountains!  And forests!) and trust everyone else's brains to help me out.  Thank you, everyone!
