How these names are built
Cities carry more syllables and more authority than towns: a monumental root (Crown, Kings, Silver) plus a stronghold suffix (-hold, -gard, -port, -castrum-style endings). The name should sound like it has walls. 576 combinations.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I signal a city's character in its name?
Prefix carries the culture (Silver = wealthy, Iron = militarised, Crown = capital), suffix carries the geography and defence (-port, -keep, -hold).
Can I reuse these for a region capital?
Yes — the same convention scales. Just reserve your grandest name for the largest settlement on the map.
