Community Help choose the The New World's new title

[Bigg Boss]

Astral Eden
Starfarer: Eden
Aether: Starfarer
Starfarer: New Utopia

I had a decent idea for something called the Aetherverse.

 

[Grauken]

Ship Rats

 

[Lahey]

Liminal Point
Gehenna
Startarus

 

[Quantomas]

Four Light Years

 

[Western]

Beneath a Steel Sky would be a perfect title if it hadn't already been taken.

I know it's low effort but why not call it, 'Under a Steel Sky'.

 

[Ranarama]

The Newer World

 

[Gylfi.Fenriz.Conquests]

Pilgrims of (the new) Utopia
Frontiers in Silicium
Trails of Orion
Caravans by nebulae
Centauri Ho

i don't like stilted titles, like youi're the star hero of something

Of the three given options, I think Starfarer is the best. "Pilgrim"-something could be the seed of a good name, but "Pilgrims of Earth" doesn't do it for me.

Here are some others to consider, with commentary:
The First Void/The Least Void (Emphasizes that even the shortest interstellar travel faces incredible difficulty.)
The Pilgrim's Ait/Eyot (Likening the ship to an island in a river. Probably too obscure a word, though.)
The Starchart (A bleak name given the ship's apparent position scarcely changes over a human lifespan.)
Not One Orbit (The bare fact of life for intermediate generations on a generation ship.)
Stellar Transients (This title can be taken at least three different ways: 1. Astrophysical phenomenon 2. Ship and inhabitants with a thematically ephemeral existence 3. If taken pejoratively, a lot of these folks are basically space bums.)

Some others I like less well:
Neither Earth Nor Heaven
A Star's Absence
The Interstice
Decoherence Time (from the physics concept of decoherence, but here also a metaphor for mission decay)

Star Ark Leviathan?
Born Adrift the Stars. Or Ark Adrift the Stars
No Light in the Firmament
Darkness upon the face of the mission
Children of Dark Heavens. Or Orphaned in Dark Heavens
Void Piercer
Mission Year 736
Blood of His Vessel. Yeah yeah I know.
Beyond God’s Sun. So many possible puns...
A Promised Planet
The Rusted Ark, Rusted Eden?
Remnants of the Faithful
Generations Bound

I appreciate ‘East of Earth’ though

I was gonna suggest something, but this title is actually perfect. Y'all fuckers got no taste.

Starfarer is a bad ship name. The name of a big project like a generation ship would be determined by the same kind of unimaginative cargo cult people who keep scrounging the barrel for new names from greek and egyptian mythology. Look at this list of irl satellite and spacecraft names.

I liked The new world a lot. My suguestion The Promised Land it's in the same tone so i guess is a no.

 

[Bigg Boss]

I liked it too. I still think you can you just roll that into your new title which should be a single word.

Pilgrims: New World

 

[Bruma Hobo]

The Iron Ark
New Worlders
Colony Ship: A post earth role-playing game
The Age of Starfaring
Choices and Conseequences IN SPACE!!!

Honestly I think it must be karma or something. The "New World" title was so utterly generic I'm glad it won't stick in the end. As for the proposed new names I like the "East of Earth" the best although, I'd love a name that starts with "Age of" to show it's a step up form "Age of Decadence" I personally find one of the most significant RPGs lately.

As for renaming the ship to Leviathan, it might sound cool but I think it isn't realistic - quite unlikely that a large project like that would somehow manage to get such a pejoratively perceived name.

i think metatron is another cool name based on the highest ranking angel in the catholic myths.

The more obscure part of the bible probably have some cool weird names for fit for stuff like this

I just copy this idea:

Age of Void

Could fit because:

- The characters live for Ages in the generation Ship and struggle surviving it.

- People who loved Age of Decadence have something to connect this game with it's predecessor.

- Like Age of Decadence your game about an society in turmoil, that is about to change, but they do it in the changeless coldness of space.

- Just sounds cool.

- Also: I googled it, the name is still free :D!
