When I first drew the original hand-drawn maps of the Lands of Harqual oh so many years ago, a lot of the names were either placeholder or just sounded bad as the years have passed. I've renamed a lot, but a few things remain at they were.
One the names added to the map later on is one I just can't let sit any longer is the City-State of Caloric. I'm not sure where I got the idea for the name but it dawn on me until later than caloric means this:
I'd like to come up with something that sounds similar but is unique enough that I don't keep thinking of it as "Caloric" in my head. I might have to go with something completely different. I generated some name ideas using the Fantasy Name Generators web site, which I've included in the poll.
