I got a Fortress call the Bell of Air. I thought it was sort of weird, but I checked the group name and it was The Fresh Prince.
Sounds like an air freshener.

If you don't get the reference... you're making me feel old.

When I was reorganizing my inventory to fit all by books on life and death into various bags and things, I looked at my inventory and saw that I was multigrasping a necromancer slab.  It was pretty hilarious.
I think that would be an excellent way to impart the critical lessons of life and death to the ignorant masses.

Spoiler: Lame Lyrics! (click to show/hide)
This story is set in the last days of Boatmurdered.

Anway, my best names would have to be either Avuzrigoth (Minecraft) or [something] (Overworked).

My current fort is named Igerzust Stot, "Riverbed of Surprises". I did select it, but only because I knew I was embarking on a major river. I did not know that it would be a 15 z-level canyon with two waterfalls and minimal aquifers. It worked out quite well.

Gearskull.

If I could carve mechanisms out of bones, I'd be all over it.

Train everybody in mechanics and keep lots of bones around! You could even save scum mechanic moods.

My latest fort was Bronzefloors, founded by the Armory of Lightning.

My current fort is names Skullstake. Fitting since it is on the boundary between a haunted glacier and a terrifying ocean.

My current fort is named "Minetown". Not really funny or badass, but quite appropriate for dwarves, right?

The most badass name for a fort I've ever gotten was also, coincidentally, the first successful fortress I ever held.
Ibrukdeler, or in the Human tongue, Ashsteel, held around 200 people when it collapsed due to FPS death and ragequit.

Bloodwire.
Pretty fitting, since I plan to focus this fort on defense and military, preferably with the least amount of intact goblin possible. I've got a river and a volcano in a tundra! Flash-frozen siege, anyone?
