Tips & Ideas

Use shorter names for cities that appear frequently in dialogue so players and readers can remember them easily.
Give coastal cities different sounds from mountain or desert cities to suggest geography through naming.
Reuse suffixes across nearby cities to create a shared regional flavor, like -haven for port cities.
Pair city names with descriptors like "the Free City of _____" or "Port _____" for extra worldbuilding depth.
