A world I'm playing right now has a human city called.. Mebassiti. "Mirthtarget" is the translated name, but I can only call is "Mebas-City" now.

Also, what the fidget is up with the random position names? High Canyon? Holy Moral? I saw High Palisade once.

The Cream-Communion of Cuddling, and it's sister sect, The Communion of Spooning. The Fellowship of Sticking and The Order of Buckling worship the same goddess. The Virginal Band is not associated with them.

I was genning world, trying to get a nice world name with a pantheon that fits to an idea of a community fort I have.

There was one nice pantheon, but lacking in males. As I was writing down the name of the last god, the thoughts went somewhat like this.

Matul Romanceadored
Probably godess of Love

Title - The Hairy Drums
o_O

Female Dwarf - Lust
Yeaaah... female dwarves have beards, and they probably have a lot of chest hair.

The human civilization near me is named the Empires of Virginity.  The description of their traders as being obese, greasy-haired, and having bad teeth may be more than chance.

Do you always look at it in ASCII?

You get used to it, I don't even see the ASCII.  All I see is blacksmith, miner, goblin.

This was a rather hilarious name, in retrospect:

<Human female first name> Lovelyshown, The Failed Emissary Of Intricacy.

She earned that title at some point during her genocide of the elven race... with a whip.  She wasn't even trying to wipe them all out, either, she was going to spare the children, but they kept dying after a few cracks of the whip.  (She was hoping that with enough emotional and physical trauma induced over generations, the elves would eventually become a stronger, more dangerous race.  However, after she had wiped out three colonies, all of which were unable to even bruise her, she decided that the elves were really just too weak to survive any sort of improvement, and after she wiped out the elves, drowned herself.

One of my fortress's miners was named Aban Oarmasters.

Say the last name to yourself a couple times.

The Nut of Sisters. It's an elvish nation, not a drag revue. Not that there's much difference.

I sadly quickly forget funny names for stuff but on my new world one of the civs has the most epic name ever.
"(something something I forgot) The legendary flowers of doom"

O_o. They're elves...

I once flung a migrant off a bridge. He collided with the brook cliff and died.
A year later, my legendary engraver engraved him colliding with an obstacle and dying.
