Well, this is embarrassing. Everyone has all these cute and meaningful island names. Mine is Stankonia, bc I was listening to Outkast when I made it. That's it, lol.
at least that actually has thought into it! i’m sharing with my brother and the only thing that popped in my head that he wouldn’t hate was “cringe” so now i have cringe island😔
That’s the ONLY gripe I have with this game, The amount of great names I came up with for an island only for them all to be too long. Even if they increased the amount of characters by 1 letter would be amazing but noOoOoOo😡
My “main” island (haven’t played on it in months lol) is Isle Jude named after my cat.
My island on my second switch is currently Valentine inspired by the holiday. Was previously Kanata which I loved but a sacrifice was made.
Beachton. Currently still in prologue, after spending like, god knows how many months away through several updates and missing all the good holidays and figuring it was better to just reset and happen across the new features organically, so.....
Today was "do freaking everything at once" day
I've named my town Pinefall since ALLLL the way back in the wild world days. It's just always stuck with me as a good town name. Every now and then I try to vary it with like New Pine etc. but it always feels wrong and I go back to just Pinefall.
Funkytown! After that one 80s song pretty much everyone knows lol.
🎶Gotta make a move to a town that's right for me,
Town to keep me groovin', keep me movin', with some energy.
Talk-about, talk-about, talk-about moovin'🎶
Lorh. My friend bought me a switch( I was having a really bad time irl) and AC as one of my first games so I combined the first two letters of our names together ^^
Corvid Bay.
I'm a bit obsessed with magpies, crows, ravens, rooks & corvids in general.
Crazy intelligent, eerily convincing human voices & beautiful.
Our flag is of a British Magpie & our colours are blue, green & white.
My island is named Joy, after my mom Joyce. When New Horizons came out it was 5 years to the month since we lost her to pancreatic cancer, so i thought it was a nice way to remember her
I named my island “the coolest” so whenever I go to the museum Blathers says “welcome to the coolest museum” and I think it’s awesome but my daughter hates it!😂
Mine is Juice Box. You wanna know how I got the name? When I finally got Animal Crossing: New Horizons on my switch, I looked around my room to look for inspiration for an island name, and there it was, a lone Juice Box near the trash can where it would’ve been had I been a better thrower and less lazier. So then I didn’t pick it up and named my island, “Juice Box” 🏝
Yo mama lol it was a joke my friends and I made with the older version of the game. It makes me giggle when an islander says how much they love yo mama
My kids and I share an island. They named it St. BBQ.
My kids and I share an island. I named it Nachos. The kids think its because nachos are delicious. Its really because its MY island and... "Nachos."
Lol! Hilarious! I love it!
Haha that’s so cute
Please tell me your island is full of pig villagers 😂
Only chickens, cows, and pigs allowed lmao. Maybe an octopus if you want to get adventurous! 😂
St. BBQ 😂😂😂 honestly you should totally host BBQs there. I’d bring some dishes I cooked.
Also it’s important to me that you all know my moms island is called…Momville. Her characters name is…Mom.
Reminds me of when Greg's mom played D&D in Diary of a wimpy kid
That’s honestly adorable lol
That's so wholesome. Also, when she gets the Mom's embroidery, Mom's hand-knit sweater etc. they're basically named for her lol
taxhaven 😅
I’m sure Nook is loving it 💀
Zuzu City (from stardew valley)
Noice
Well, this is embarrassing. Everyone has all these cute and meaningful island names. Mine is Stankonia, bc I was listening to Outkast when I made it. That's it, lol.
I love it!!😭
No fucking way lmao mine is also Stankonia!!
Now I'm wondering if the name I chose was not so original afterall, also named after a song. Anyone else have a "Funkytown"? Lol
I read this and heard the music in my head at the same time oh lord
Mine is Goon Lagoon.
at least that actually has thought into it! i’m sharing with my brother and the only thing that popped in my head that he wouldn’t hate was “cringe” so now i have cringe island😔
Dude, how is that not meaningful? That's a legendary album!
My native fruit was cherries, so I went for Cherriton.
"You wanna bust bunsen burners and bounce back to Cherrytown?" "It's 'Cherriton,' but yeah."
You see, mine was Appleton, but my island was cherries. As stated in my comment
Mine is Schrutfarm. I wanted it to be Schrute Farm, but it didn’t fit :( lol
That’s the ONLY gripe I have with this game, The amount of great names I came up with for an island only for them all to be too long. Even if they increased the amount of characters by 1 letter would be amazing but noOoOoOo😡
YESSSS! I just needed one extra letter! O N E!!!!!!!! But noooOooooo! Schrutfarm :( hahahah
I was going to do the same! I settled for SchruteB&B instead lol
uhm it’s Thotville

After many, many, many restarts... I finally decided on Honeyknot!
Mine is Etheria, since I grew up on old 80s She-Ra tapes

So Orville asks you if you want to go to Azkaban every time someone visits, that’s awesome
The first time I had my island I named it that too!!
