I think we should start by nominating names [[Collab:Federal_States/Natural_features#Mountains|from this list]], and perhaps adding some if anyone wishes. If necessary, we can narrow down the list of nominations further before the official ballot. As a side note, appropriate indigenous languages to derive from will probably be Iroquoian or Eastern Algonquian. --[[User:Fluffr Nuttr|Fluffr Nuttr]] ([[User talk:Fluffr Nuttr|talk]]) 07:21, 12 January 2024 (UTC)

*I nominate '''Asphale Mountains''' (checked [https://www.gilwell.com/lenape/lenape.pdf here] on page 9; most likely derived from the Lenape word meaning "to ascend") and '''Riddler Mountains'''. --[[User:Fluffr Nuttr|Fluffr Nuttr]] ([[User talk:Fluffr Nuttr|talk]]) 07:21, 12 January 2024 (UTC)

Since people have been working on officially naming the western mountains, it would be a good idea to start off on the Eastern mountains, too.

I think we should start by nominating names from this list, and perhaps adding some if anyone wishes. If necessary, we can narrow down the list of nominations further before the official ballot. As a side note, appropriate indigenous languages to derive from will probably be Iroquoian or Eastern Algonquian. --Fluffr Nuttr (talk) 07:21, 12 January 2024 (UTC)

  • I nominate Asphale Mountains (checked here on page 9; most likely derived from the Lenape word meaning "to ascend") and Riddler Mountains. --Fluffr Nuttr (talk) 07:21, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
