Hierokonpolis name change

Title says it all.

I was thinking of Olympus, or Adonis, something along those lines.

I guess the only prerequisite for names is that UNSC ships get Greek names and words, while UNSC stations get Greek city names. (something I had not taken into account when I named it Hierokonpolis)


Here are some Greek name sources:

Anyway, find a name you like and post it here!


P.S. When coming up with names, remember that it is significantly bigger and more baddass then ever before!

Yeah, its a UNSC cruiser, supposed to be the largest or second largest one, and its a modern cruiser too, unlike the POA.

So Marathon class then.

...No, clearly this is not a Marathon, it is a new ship for a mod I am working on.

Anyway, what would be a good Greek name for it?

The Cornith/Argos/Olympia/Larissa/Apollonian/Aegean


List goes on, but I like The Aegean the best.

Good, good choices, preferably ending with the letter N.

Isn't Olympia in use already? (some other spaceship in some other universe?)

I meant that it is closer a Marathon class than a Halcyon class.

The Hyperion

The Orion

The Posiedon

The Sarpedon

^^ Greek names (note: not cities)

Halcyon isn't a place, but Marathon is. I don't understand your naming rules.

I like Gauz's idea of Hyperion; it would be a nice nod to SC too ;)

Naming rules:

Station: name of the city it is orbiting over

Ship: Greek name or word, three syllable, preferably ending with the letter N.

no, just N

Yes...

but does the FORWARD UNTO DAWN!?
