What are you going to name your star?

What are you going to name your star?

Might as well fill this space up with 'useless' topics :grin: ^_^ ;P

So what are you going to name your star and what's the reason for that name (if any) ?

I'm going to name my star 'Emmen'. It's my hometown, lived here all my life and am proud of it even though most Dutch people would call it a dump.

 

Edit; why is this topic showing up in the General GC3 subforum? I posted it in the GC3 Founders subforum.

I named Mine Trillia becouse its the name I always use for my evil necromancers and it sounded pretty star system like.  O:)

I named mine Clan McLean to honor my Grandfather who was more like a father to me in my teen years when I really needed one.  Eugene McLean, RIP.

I named my star after our daughter who passed away last December at 19.  My wife thought it was a nice way to remember her memory.  So look for a star named Shayla - this is my star

That's sweet Dougo. I'd name one Estrella. It's Spanish for star.

I too would like to know the answer to this question. I don't recall seeing a email about the submittal process.

Did you buy the $100.00 edition? If so then thats the one that gave you the ability to name a star. I don't know if they closed it, I had heard when the $100.00 was no longer sold it would be too late. But you might be able to get with stardock and see if they can do anything.

Are the personally named stars in the current version?  If not when will they be showing up?  If so has anyone come across their own named star?

There's a list at the bottom of the name your star post.

You need to scroll down within the little window and it's not smooth, so patience will be helpful.

There's probably a proper searchable list somewhere, but I didn't look for it after I saw mine in the little scrolly one.

Theres also an xml file in your game that you can modify, add to, or remove names that you don't want in your game. I forget where its at though, can't go looking right now.

Mine is named after my daughter, she has got some health issues(CP) and the way she is going through live(although she is only 7), makes me proud.

I named mine after my daughter, but it seems to be screwed up when I look at the list of approved names.  I named it "Rose020209" and in the list it says "rose020209 roselyn"...??  :(

In StarNamesText.xml there are two names, Rose and Roselyn. To make it clear, these are separate star names.

I guess it's just displayed weird in the star names list.
