I was thinking that maybe a feature could be introduced where 0.0 aliances could rename some of the systems that they have uncontested control over. Systems with alphanumeric names like PFP-GU are impossible to remember for many players (or maybe just me), and there are hundreds of them.
I was thinking that the aliance that controls the system could suggest a new name, and if CCP approves the name then that system could be permanantly changed to that new name. (even if a new aliance moves in, the name stays)
I don't know if this would work, or if the 0.0 players would even want this, but I thought I'd throw it out.

I was thinking of that too, but what about the guys who already have assets in 0.0 but been away from there, they remember their battleship was parked in AB-XYZ, they look in assets and can't find it because the system was renamed...???

Maybe keep the original name in parenthesis? Or send out an evemail to everyone with assets in the system.

That's more a problem with renaming stations. I had some assets in a station, then the system got conquered, and suddenly a whole new name appears on my assets list. It's weird, but not too problematic.
Renaming systems wouldn't be a huge problem, although it would be a little awkward for talking about it.
I'd like to be able to rename regions and constellations instead, so if you've got 25% sovreignty in a region and nobody else holds any systems there, your alliance can rename it.

And start a contest over who's the first to slip a foul word or derogatory comment into a system name first?
Nah, no thanks. Paris was still Paris when 'That Bad Man' took it over.

That's why I say any names would have to approved by CONCORD, and systems can only be renamed once.
You don't want a system to be renamed every time it changes hands like Byzantium/Constantinople/Istanbul, but rather just take it away from the alphabet soup names.

system naming would be nice tbh. it would be good if you could change the name if you had Sov of the system, but when you lost Sov the system name reverted back to it's original.

To be honest, that would mean such frequent name changes during wartime, finding your way around would quickly become intensely irritating.
Plus, the day names like Y5J-EU really do mean something, and carry a sense of home, is the day a newbie has finally made it in 0.0. On an emotional level, that's a real reward. So please let's keep all the M-MD3B stuff, let's keep the worlds of Empire and 0.0 distinct in naming convention, and let those who wish to understand, work their way to that understanding.

Keep name first 6 signs, so search, geography and stuff still works. After a year or so, renaming level 2 and better search perhaps (search not pnly beginning of system name).

I really like the idea, especially the way in the last post.
Renaming should be a unique procedure, so wars and changing allies wouldn't mess it up.
(i really, really hate that naming salat as it's now in 0.0 - it's really annoying and hard to remember, or at least by me).

Good idea, but the systems would still have to have a fixed and unique name so people can still recognise that system even once it changes hands.
Great idea using the [0.0 name] '{custome name}' convention.
Maybe this could be done with the stations too as people find it amusing to change station names every 3 minutes, which means that I have no idea where my jump clones or assets are located anymore....even after a week of living in 0.0

I'd prefer in the neighbourhood of 5 billion.
0.0 alliances with outposts and whatnot should be able to afford that, but only use it in certain systems (IE: outpost systems)

I would say, no, to this idea. Simply becuase you would end up with the worst names in the world. For examples, just look at the names of outposts.
You would end up with things like "Smoske was here" or "Drop By for a McDonalds" as system names, which would ruin every vague idea of game immersion.
If the names had to passed through CCP in a similar way to the Alliance logo's that would help it to a certain extent.

That's why I think CCP should have to give their stamp of approval to any new system names, and establish rules for naming. You can't put the name of an individual player or the name of an opposing alliance or corp.
"Goon Prime" would be acceptable but, "Tarquin Tarquinius's Solar System" or "BoB R TEH NOOBZ" wouldn't be.

what about if it had to be your corps headquarters, your alliance had to have sov. and it took 5 days to show up? (like sov) Keep the old names as well so you can use both to nav there, but limit the number of renamed systems by making it hq only.

There would have to be a time period of sov before renaming could take place I would think...say something like 1 or 2 months.

Not a bad idea.
Honestly, I like it alot... Personally I think it should be able to be named after a player, corp or alliance... (IE Player's Last Stand, Corp's Defeat, or Alliances final Battle.) If the alliance held sov and of course some corp had an outpost present there and an HQ. This way alliances could more easily mark where important events occured in thier space. Maybe they wish to honor thier foe, even though they were defeated. Personally if I was the last standing defense between my alliances death and the enemy, leading the last remenants of the defense forces, I would be very thankful for which ever alliance for marking my last battle, or my corps final stand, or the alliance last attempt to hold thier ground, even if it said was named after the enemy alliance in some way mocking me. Like "Enemy Alliances Easiest Victory ever".
Of course I think it should be kept to a max of 2 maybe 3 short words, and Concord (read as CCP) should have to put thier stamp of approval on it, nothing that was outright slander, and no slang words, or curses in languages yet to be identified, LOL.

CCP didn't name every system ny hand, I hope. They could use the generator that they used to create the system names the first time. Or remake one, and then let an alliance rename from the list, one change and it would be permenent. Maybe tie it into the larger alliance space claiming changes, and charge to register it with Concord.

Permenant changes are bad and wrong - 0.0 space changes hands a lot and new people should be able to change it even if someone else named it before.
I think the suggestion earlier was excellent...where you have to rename it and keep it on that new name for 6 months and then the name becomes permanent - until someone else renames it and holds it on the new name for 6 months again.

How this could be done:
While an alliance holds soverngity over a system they can chose to apply for the system to have its name changed (this may involve a fee). This will start a timer (I'm not sure how long this timer should be, but a month minimum), when the timer ends the system gets that name.
If the system changes hands the timer will keep ticking down with the name the previous alliance chose, but at any time the alliance holding the system can cancel the request. Some method to make sure they really want to do this would be good, maybe an "are you sure" question that you can't answer yes to till at least 24 hours after first saying cancel. Once the request is canceled then they move back to the first step.
Along with the requested name will be a method for the leaders of the holding alliance to add their comments about the name. These comments will be viewable by members of whichever alliance holds the system so they can see why the previous alliance wanted that name (say a major battle took part there). These comments will also include weather CCP have approved the name yet or not, if CCP do not like then the request will get cancled instantly.
Once the name has CCP approval and the timer elapses then the system will have its name displayed as old name (new name) for about a week and people will be notified about the upcomming name-change (I'm not sure who should be notified). Then the holding alliance will no longer be able to cancel the process and its name will become the new name.
If this causes too much trouble with alliances rushing in at the last minute to prevent a name change it could be changed that once the name becomes old name (new name) it is too late to cancel the change.
With this method the only ways for a system to get its name changed is to eaither have it stay in the hands of one alliance for the timers duration, or for all the alliances that hold it during the timer to agree on the requested name.

Something should be done about these names. Although it is sometimes amusing to see what you can make out of the letters, its tedious and as this game's all about the player (player driven alliances, POS, player driven economy etc etc) lets get something as simple as a system name changed. Empires have sovereignty and have named systems, alliances should have that too.

Aslong as CCP or something official agrees on the name.
and all searches for original system name would end up with the "new" (in p&p etc)
Other than that, I'd say one system name per alliance..max.

Great idea, but it should have to be a serious thing, maybe a use for a "Sov level 5"? The renaming would have to be approved by CCP.
I mean, i don't want to see, "Autopilot navigating to - S-U8A4 'Knights of PWNAGE universal HQ' ". Please. No.
But I'd love to see renamed systems. I'd love to see rival alliances name their home systems "Klendathu" and "Sanctuary" respectively

I appreciate some ideas of thread and in the light of last sov changes whole scheme may be:
1. Once system takes Sov.4, constellation capital can be renamed (suffixied, like "EWOK-K NameItHere") by owning alliance.
2. Name shold be short enough (10 letters?),
3. not matching any existed Empire names and
4. get approval from ISD moderators.
5. Name may be changed only(!) in one way - if that system takes Sov.4 under control of other alliance.
6. No renaming possible in any way. This action should be one-time, triggered by Sov.4 and removed by usage.
I think it is fair enough and less confusing for most people, old and new. You will have relatively stable system name in Your assets.

The only way to do this sensibly would be to have a CONCORD-recognized name and a local name both searchable and viewable on the map.
i.e. HED-GP would be the CONCORD-recognized name, but next to it you'd see "Pod Pilot's End" as the local name.

Maybe not every star, but the capital system definitely. Think about it...in the Fountain 0.0 region, you have the normal mishmash of random alphanumeric names, and then the faction's capital is named after the faction (Serpentis Prime)...why not be able to do the same for player-controlled 0.0 and extend it to the other pirate factions (Guristas, Angels, etc.) as well?

If a pirate faction can force DED to change the name of a solar system on all existing maps, why can't an alliance do the same?

You're not at all worried the systems would have inane names like much of the outposts do? Sheepshag Prime, Pwnzor, Sparta, Spaaarta, Sp4rta and so on and on...
That's why I think it would need CCP approval like the Alliance logos.
Best outpost name ever: The SMASH School for Children Who Can't Read Good.

...and this is exactly what I don't want to see in my game. Why not polkadot Concord and rename them Leather & Lube?

+ support
this is one of the first things i wondered about when i first started playing the game, if 0.0 is player owned, wouldnt it have names? surely every alliance wouldn't name their system AJM-732. :D

We have sovereignty levels now.
At Sov 3 or 4, let us change the name.

Name is actually "SMASH station for kids who can't read good and want to do other stuff good too."
I heart my alliance but holy hell. That station takes up 1/3 of my screen when selected.

I Agree this would be cool until the systems started changing names ... then it would become a pain in the ass. |

I suggested this long ago when I posted Sovereignty 2.0.

Well, this looks like a good idea too. Have the systems revert to the old alphanumerical state when someone looses Sovereignity, and only allow renaming them once after they are reaching Sovereignity level 3 or 4... Region names however should be kept...

No. It will change system name too often and raise problem which should be avoided as possible.
System name should be kept intact until new corporation/alliance get rights to rename this one exact system.
In example, constellasion CON have systems S1, S2, S3.
Some corp Alfa get into constellation, gain control over S1 and S2, proclaim S1 as capital and raise sovereignity to constellation level, then get Sov.4 in S1 and rename it to "S1 Alfa Base".
Some time later, they get a competitor, Bravo team, wich place their base in S3, destroy installations and capture outposts in S2 and get his own Sov.4 in S2. They use his rights to rename capital to "S2 Alfa Grave", but they not have rights to rename S1 or S3 and they both keeps his names. S3 keeps his starter name, and S1 keeps his "Alfa Base" suffix.
As You can see, it have one side-effect. This system "keeps tracking" of constellation history.
In future, I wish that CCP will place landmarks with constellation history in every constellation which have systems with name changed more than one time.
