What is your favorite custom name that you use? Mine is the Chrisonians. Custom names mean the names you made up not just the ones of real countries that are not in the game.

I'm the owner of a geo (a fictional nation ... http://members.tripod.com/fiji_de_geus/)
So I often use citynames from my geo:
montana (invented this name before I knew there was a US state called montana)
nemechle
Ligopolis
't Zuid (literally: the south)
Libet
the list goes on ... there are 950 in total

I like to play as the Antlerists (based on my screenname here- Russians renamed) or the Terran Alliance (from Battletech- Russians or Americans renamed).

I play as the Huguenot; for ancestoral and historical reasons. Sad but true.

When I play on a custom map I play as the Jolandians, but when I play on the Earth I usually pick one of the real tribes.

Well, I like to play as the Terran Alliance or simply Terrans or Alliance (usually the Romans or Americans renamed). If not, then I play as the Russians, with Moscow or St. Petersburg renamed Antlergrad ( ).

In my very first game, I played as the Celts. As an Irishman, I was dismayed to see Cardiff as the very boring name for the first city, so I decided on cartoon characters. Homer was my capital, followed by Snoopy, Dilbert, Garfield etc.
These days, I occasionally play as the Celts, using the towns and vilages of the west of Ireland; or as the Golfers (capital: St Andrews) or the Scientists (Einstein, Darwin, Newton etc). I once played a game as Frank Lloyd Wright, with Oak Park as my capital, and Taliesin, Fallingwater, Guugenheim museum etc, but ran out of buildings.
When I get to Naples using normal Civs, I try to make city names that are puns on the language or people. So German cities are named Mercedes, BMW, Kohl, etc; Greek/ROman cities are Stadium, Uranium, Criterion, Ultimatum etc.
It makes me laugh....

Rufus T. Firefly of the Freedonians, of course. My first four cities are Grouchopolis, Chicopolis, Harpopolis, and Zeppopolis; Laurelton, Hardyton, Chaplinton, and Keaton follow hard behind, as does West Mae.
In another movie-referential bit of naming, I also recently played my first OCC as Grand Duchess Gloriana XII of Grand Fenwick. Seemed appropriate, and a little cross-dressing didn't bother Peter Sellers so why should it bother me?

Dig trenches, with our men being killed off like flies? There isn't time to dig trenches. We'll have to buy them ready made. Here, run out and get some trenches.

It was a personal test to see if I could build a web page. I'm not that insane.
