Space station names

[jammyman21]

Making a space station around kerbin and need a related term to go with it because that's how I roll...

Any suggestions?

Cheers

I get that you want suggestions, but the suggestions forum is for suggestions about KSP itself. That's okay though! It will probably get moved to the right area, but keep in mind where you post to next time.

Anyway, to answer your question, I recommend choosing a name that you actually know about. I know that a lot of people like to name their stuff after mythology and made up names and whatnot, but I prefer to have an understanding of what name I am choosing. I choose names from games I've played, TV shows or anime I've watched, etc. Whatever interests you, use it! That will make you more eager to visit it every now and then too.

My best station so far was called "Ranma Station". I'm calling my next one "Ran and Chen's SpacePlace".

Better than StationCore1 that I used in my Saturn Shuttle series for ages.

I like to name outposts beyond Kerbin orbit after various names for or places within hell, like Gehenna, Niflheim, Sheol, Tartarus. This tendency probably comes from Naev, where there's a station called Cerberus serving as the closest place to the centre of a dangerous nebula, which I often visited.

Also, players calling their their primary station in LKO the KSS, after the ISS, is a common convention.

In one career I started, I would name the ships after characters or creatures in stories or songs, like Puff the Magic Dragon, and stations and bases after related fictional places, like Honnah Lee.

I like using some Japanese names sometimes  I once called my Mün Station "Kaguya"
