OFFICIAL: Choose the city name (final)
The two most voted city names to choose from.

El Dorado - That in spanish means: The Golden. And hitorically is a mytical city so rich that even houses were made of gold held by 16th century explorers to exist in South America

Lemur City - From our country name Lemuria. If anyone really wants we can make a poll among its variables (Lemur Town, Lemur Poo, Lemurkat, etc...).

Lemur city. Since it works like some civilizations. Roman which the capital was held on Rome, Mexican in Mexico City, Brasilian in Brasilia, Carthagian in Carthage, etc...

I rather call El Dorado a city settle next to a gold good.

We have enough Lemur references already IMO, but I guess H Tower and I are a minority. I sure hope this is the last of 'em for a while though...

Well Lemur City sucks, and actual El Dorado is only the best of the bad choices so I guess I have to vote for it.

El Dorado just reminds me of a very bad TV show.

We need to keep up the Lemur theme. Cities named after different types of Lemurs would be good too.

Actiual I want a run off poll between the first names and not between these ones.

Actual it wins, because a lot of people don't like El Dorado and Pedrunn dicided to put into this run off poll the first Lemurian like name into it, because a lot of people voted for other Lemur based options, like chosing the top chinese city name, because a lot of people voted for Chinese city names or take the Islandic city names or take the top fantasy based city name, because a lot of people decided for such a category.

So it's safe to say you voted for El Dorado?

What do you think of "Pedrunnia" or "Pedrunn" for our city? Better than "Lemur City"?

Well go for it it is your right to name the city. But seriously it is also worth to consider this name. Our first city would be named after our first president. Of course to give him the honour.
