#1119, "Character names vs. Map names"


          

I'm brand new and curious. I appreciate the naming policy for roleplaying. How many Airagorns or Gundolfs are on other MUDs? Not to mention the sophomoric names (Hue G. Rection was an eye-roller I found once). This makes roleplaying sincere and true to form. Kudos to the developers of CF!

With that in mind, here's my confusion. We are not to use literary or "common" fantasy names yet the map shows locations like Mirkwood and Moria. Is this Middle Earth? Or were they just part of the initial MUD when CF came out years ago? Seems contridictory.

Just curious as to the justification.
