CONTEST: Chozo Homeworld Contest
DEADLINE: 11:59pm January 10th, 2010 server time

Hello, and welcome to the one and only Chozo Homeworld Contest, where YOU get to choose the name of the Chozo Homeworld itself! (At least in my hack.)

Rules:
Naming: any names you want as they do not contain anything offensive. I'm wanting something ancient and majestic sounding, but post whatever you come up with.
Length: it has to be something you can actually read and pronounce. No "aaaaahiggjaddabattabutterkkklmngh" please. This is a serious contest.
1 post per person: If you wish to add more names to your pool after posting, edit your post instead of making another.  There is no limit to the number of names a person suggests, as long as they stay in the said post.

Prizes:
#1: The chosen name shall be used as the name of the Chozo Homeworld in my current hacking project.
#2: Good names that didn't win may be used in the story somehow.
#3012 out of 3012: I might try to take the worst name that doesn't violate the rule on length and use it in the hack somewhere, too >_>

I'm counting on you!

There will be no forum based prizes such as trophies, etc.  DSO has the final say of who is declared the winner, as he is the sponsor of said contest.  I'd like to point out multiposting will not be allowed.  If you post more then once, your extra posts will be merged with your first one by either me or another staff member.  Please keep discussion of this topic to the Off-Topic board.  This topic is only for posting names.

With that, lets get this underway! ^_^

I hope to see lots of awesome names kiddies! :D

Reserved spot for announcing the winner/runners up.

And the winner is...

Dmantra with Maphive! Nothing suggests a ancient and wizened civilization like making maps of the universe from a... hive. You win a permit to do some random activity (that doesn't require a permit)!

The runners up? Well, you'll have to play and see, cause I'm still writing out the lore so I can't say what made it and what didn't.

Thank you all for your entries.
