    If you haven't looked through the Name Archive on the original post, you might want to check that out. For a name that is similar to the way MLG is played, I'd go with Formation. Also in the Name Archive, Xenisis is a name that sounds pretty cool.

    Formation
    and
    Xenisis

    Map Style:Custom VIP Escort
    Map Name Preferences:
    Map Quality Named After: A large door, that is unlocked by a power drain, and the gameplay is centered around. OR the idea of a lock and key door. OR (bare with me) the idea of the other team defending said key.
    Map Name Meaning:
    Map Description: One team must head into a complex to find a power drain. The power drain is the key to a door which they must proceed through (where the Escort location is). The other team will be all throughout the complex attempting to kill the other team before they can get in, grab the key, and get out.

    I have 3 name suggestions...

    Technicolor (Could be for any map, really.)

    Mobius (For a map that loops around or has several arches.)

    Martial (Maybe a swords or MLG map.)

    Maybe mobius would work for BraveDave's map.

    Momentum? Kinetic? The project?

    Bravedave- ligato(or whatever the music term that means smooth and connected is) that will really help accent the arch.
    Also, equilibrium for the archive.

    Hmmm i like the sound of Momentum, I'll probably call it that, it fits quite well. Thanks for the help.

    I don't condone rape, but in THAT situation, it works pretty well. You also gave me an idea for a map with that name, thanks!

    Map Style: Minigame based on Indiana Jones, with traps puzzles etc.
    Preference: It's set in the skybubble so something to do with the sky

    Basically I need a typical Indiana Jones name (e.g. [place] of the [adjective] [noun]) that fits around being in the sky.

    Map type: Conquest

    Map style: At this point, the map curves towards the center, which is sort of a cave with lots of metal bars. Parts of it were inspired by Socratic Method, and Dunescape.

    Ideas/Preference: I have never had trouble naming my maps, but this is my best one yet, and I want a good name. :)
    The name Celestial appeals to me, and I thought of the name Bastion for it too. Any other ideas?

    Map: Longshore
    Amount of players: 4-7 players
    Theme: A sort of Water Purification Center. The map is mostly water-level. It could also be a sort of water storage.

    These two play along with the ODST theme more.
