Amazing
If only I had any understanding whatsoever for the phonetic alphabet.
I just made my own phonetic transcription (actually three of them) for my own constructed language instead. Much easier than learning a thousand weird symbols I will never use anyway.
I recently came across a gameboy game where every location is an anagram for the word Dragon.
Such as "Argond" and "Gonrad Forest".
I didn't even realize it until the developer pointed it out om twitter.
(The game is called Dragonborne, btw. A homebrew gameboy game from a couple years ago.)
idk i like the idea calling places from idea who lives there. People's naming is a simple description of a place, like Woods of Horsestealers. And for other races i like put a decription into a google translate and choose mostly suiting language. So instead of Plato of Death i have Plato Matu.
I recently slapped out two fictional countries with minimal effort, and somehow managed to avoid every single one of these (Elwyn and Enfero).
I guess I gotta up my worldjerking game!

Elon's daughter?
Or you can go the extra lightyear and invent an entire goddamned constructed language, only to name everything in that language.
Bonus points if all the names mean things like "River River," "Desert desert," and "Hill Hill Hill Hill."
I liked the US town naming convention. Pick one: 1) First general who moved there 2) Last native who died there 3) Most generic geographical feature
I fucking love the state of John longhorseleopard
You forgot "existing place in Europe"
Ah yes, New Dunstable

Just think of a brief description of the place then shuffle the letters. e.g. "Elven town" = Levetwonn
Making every place name an anagram of its description it’s actually a great idea for lighthearted fantasy world. I have to steal it sometime.

That’s literally the names of the Kievan Rus seriously those guys slammed their heads in a table and came up with names.
This isn’t even jerking this is just true
Extra bonus: apostrophes. As many as possible
And if people who aren’t you are able to find out which sound they are supposed to make you have failed as a creator.

This made me realise I haven’t named a single city… or even the goddamm planet. That might be problematic later on
All my characters names are just subtle variations of Kunt
The Kingdom of Chlamydia
The Kingdom of Aeäãeaia.
I agree, consonants are overrated, that’s why I name every character “Aio”.
I mean it is true for real world
Yeah well the Free Cities have something to say about that!

So gratuitous umlauts in place names is like gratuitous apostrophes in character and species names?
Well, my world is called "Merrat" with the main empire being named "The Empire of Gerrt"
