I know there's a few threads on naming out there, but I haven't seen one quite on this question.
How do you name your towns, villages, cities and landscape?? Do you prefer place names which are descriptive or foreign? For example, do you prefer something like Juntero Mountain or Red Lion Mountain? That's just an example I made up, not something out of my work.
In my current WIP, I'm going with an Asian theme. I want to use descriptive names to avoid the foreign-name-overload, since there's already a lot of exotic words. But I don't think most of the names I'm coming up with work very well. Any tips?
