Finding a name for a new settlement

Choosing a name is a crucial part of a settlement's persona. To find a name that fits, consider:

  • Does it hint at a particular landmark or resource?
  • Should it include references to the pre-war world?
  • Does it evoke a sense of safety and community?
  • How does it compare to other settlement names from the Fallout universe?
