Name Suggestions for the Guild

[LocksmithArmy]

Just put in 'Council of the Crimson [word]' and we can vote on the word in a new thread

Did not mean to offend. I apologize. I was trying to point in the direction that it was Crusade and not "The Crusades" because generally connotation shouldn't include proper nouns. Maybe I should have also have used assertive rather than aggressive there. I'll try and be more careful about the words I am using.

Was there one or two of these you wanted me to include in the list? I certainly do not want to include them all as our list of suggestions is approx. 35 long.

I would just take the top ten that people mention they like from the thread and put them in the final vote list.

we have a pretty good method for limiting the list

Nice!

I think we should edit the "Crusade" word in that official list and make it "The Council of Crimson <...>"

This was something Townsend and I were talking about. We should be mindful of how the name comes across. Some of these sound awesome but don't really apply to our Guild Type. 

Now, I do think some of the names that have been tossed around should be kept. But assigned to a unit. For example, say the Guild Name was the East Athanasia Trading Company but some of the 'groups' inside the guild had names, like Crimson Hammer, Crimson Knights, Crimson Vanguard ... all of those sound like great names (to me anyway) for military units / groups.

I like where you are going with this =P ... everyone should listen to thecelticfriar! lol

I wasn't offended ... I don't know that anyone else was either but can't speak for them. I totally got the what you were saying. Sadly and very incorrectly, the word crusade has been likened so much to the crusades of the middle ages and thus leaves a bad taste in everyone's mouth. The same could be said for the Stars & Bars (Dixie Flag) or even the terms Christian and Muslim. Even if we totally understood our intent I'm sure there are those who would pre-judge with their own bias before getting to know us. 

Anyway, man, it's all good in the hood.

TownsendVol will think less of you for saying anyone should listen to me ... I mean I don't know that I'd really worry about that, but just letting you know how he feels.

Dirtyfootwork drinks a LOT, I just assume he is drunk.

[The One-eyed Fool]

Lol fair point, and always a good assumption. What can you do with a drunken sailor? 😌

[rakenra]

No worries! We have a ton of great names to choose from. It's gonna be hard.

Shave his beard with a rusty razor ...

Throw him in the hold with the Captains daughter ...

I can think of a few ideas

If you don't mind adding Fairy Tail for a guild name.  Yes its from an anime(I'm kind of a nerd like that)  The name of "Fairy Tail" represents a sense of adventure for one to be able to discover more about mysteries, fate and unyielding loyalty to each other.

I can also go for The Children of Odin or Fate Reforged
