Accordlands: Good name or not?

[Number47]

When I first read it, I wondered to myself if they would have stats on Weird Al Yankovic. Because he would be, like, a warlord of the accordian.

Why not just Warlords?

There ought to be a new Ennie category next year - product name that inspires the most bad jokes.



Still, one semi-interesting thing, is people seem divided by those who thinks of accordions, and those who think of the car by Honda. Sort of an ink blot deal, I guess.

Woops, now there's an Acorn Lands.


Still, I think it does sound odd - like something translated into English from another language by Babelfish...

Babel fish is a language.

But that would be \/\/4r1Ørdz, not Warlords.

I just don't like the name that well. I didn't read it differently, or even think of accordians until others brought them up, but.. it doesn't seem to flow easily as a name. It just doesn't seem.. real or plausible that an area would be named that. That certainly won't stop me from cracking the cover to find out what's inside, but if I were shopping for something and just had the name to go by, I probably wouldn't look at it first or second time through.

Vomit bag, please...

Acorn lands. This would guarantee a quick takeover by Squirrel Nutkin.

YES!! The Pantheon shall have its vengeance at last.

Seriously, the name is weak and distracts from the product.

The name reminds me of something you would say, meaning to sound cool; however, upon hearing the words aloud, leaves you taken aback by the cosmic-o'rama feeling that bounces back at you.

It is akin to how you might feel after standing up at a crowded party and yelling, "Cheers to the best party!". Only after all heads turns your way do you realize what you have done

No worse than Middle Earth, Faerun, or Oerth to me.
