I believe that if life gives you lemons, you should make lemonade... And try to find somebody whose life has given them vodka, and have a party.

Armokmigrur

(In the Language of the Dwarves in Dwarf Fortress "Armokmigrur" is a combination of Armok, the deity of blood (and creation), and the dwarf word meaning "ocean".)

My alliance, The Slaves to Armok, are mostly made up of players from a game called Dwarf Fortress and we, having made our homelands on Farra Isle (we call it Armokkumid) and the Rill Archipelago (we call it Armokfall) since the beginning of the game (or rather since the regions were created), would like to call the ocean Armokmigrur in honor of our patron deity, Armok. Armok has seen fit to bestow his blessings upon the Southern Seas by placing his patron animal, the poisonous crawler, on all available space. By naming the sea after Armok, who is a deity of creation and who symbolizes the creation of a new land, we hope to appease Armok so that he will bestow his blessings upon all the of the Broken Lands. In hope that one day they may be reunited again and the world will turn green and there will be bountiful harvests.

A little backround:

@Rikoo: How about... many suggestions welcome. Any overlaps, the first post is credited. No edits, as that confuses the timestamps. Folk ahve posted more than one anyway... ;op

I apologize: I meant to say that many names are welcome, but keep them in a single post. Do not post one in one post, and then another in a new post. Just go back and edit your post and put another. 

I knew that players would want to submit more than one, so there ya go! I'll edit the original post.

Thanks,

Mediterraneus

"
The term Mediterranean derives from the Latin word mediterraneus, meaning "in the middle of earth" or "between lands" (medi-; adj. medius, -um -a "middle, between" + terra f., "land, earth"):"
