Oh ok well thanks for telling me but since no name was chosen does anyone have any name they would vote for?
EDIT: sorry for the double post.

PLOUTOS, for the Greek god of wealth(I just looked it up on Google). The moon should be called Purgatory, because it is home to the undead who are trapped between life and death. Maybe I'm getting a little too poetic.

Just a little. But shouldn't the planet be called Purgatory? Since clones don't really "live" in the traditional sense? The moon could be called Ares, for the Greek god of war. And the double post was OK, just edit next time.

Nah, those names are a bit cheesy. I'd say make up a random sci-fi sounding one. Maybe with some latin mixed in.

I say some made up name for the planet, or maybe a scientific designation- NQSC-134B
actually, that one rhymes, so maybe not that one.
or have different factions call it different things. The more robotic ones call it by the sciencey name, but the ronin call it shauku or something scary like that.

for the moon I think straight up greek god names are fine. But pluto is the name of one of the "planets" in our solar system, though, so don't use that.

How about a more orkish name: "Giant ball with bling in it"

Ronin pilot: Ok guys, we'll be landing on the Giant Ball With Bling In It in a few minutes, so get ready!

No, that's LocationOnPlanet = Vector, and it's the location of a mission on the planet in the campaign menu.
Vector in this case being "A quantity, such as velocity, completely specified by a magnitude and a direction," like all other offsets in the game.

Well you can always think of something random if someone wanted to name it like
Aythonilium
Baturios Seven-Two-Zero
Cynthenos
Dithertum XIV
Engardær (Engardaer)
Fyrinen Q26-E
Garthonus
Herdonilum 675
Ipternon
Jactonates J2-C
Klertonius
Lincerdon XII
Miternios
Neblonium V
Otrenzias
Perthonem 372-K
Quantemus
Redwelgor IV
Stantorias
Terratenimus
Upertosius Seven-Point-Two
Varteminean
Witetalos
Xathonium
Ypsalius
Zanthenaios
I think none of them come up in Google
So the possiblities are endless...of course actual names of gods are cooler IMO :)
