The suggestions are in and we have 3 names to choose from. I'm opening the votes to all paying patrons and will keep the vote open till the end of this week. 
I'd like to thank the patrons who took the time to give me suggestions (you know who you are!)

A few of the names also have meanings, so I'll go through those here before the individual entries:

CISNERIA:  Cis (latin prefix to indicate something "in our side"), neria (related to black, on account of the nearby Black Mountains) 
CAGASTRIA:  archaic word meaning a disease born under an ill-star.  
TLON: the name of the fictional universe invented by Jorge Luis Borges for his classic short story "Tlon, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius."

Go ahead and vote for any of these you like (you can vote for more than one.

Even though I was the one who suggested Tlon as a tip of the hat to Jorge Luis Borges, I think Cisneria is more in keeping with the other Place names in Elyden.

Whatever wins, I'll make sure to use the other 2 names for something in the map, like a capital or major city.

Aww, I'm sad that Cagastria didn't make it. Being named for a "disease born under an ill-star" has got to be an interesting tale to explain that etymology!

So it wasn't only my imagination that cagastria reminded me "cagare" in italian
