A new planet containing a lot of water needs a proper name, and at the moment it is full of halofags voting for 'Reach'. Maybe we could get something NG related onto it? Any ideas?

If it has to be NG related, 'Brackenwood' would be a pretty cool name.

The following widget got pwned by some hackers. We're trying to get it fixed and apologize to everyone who submitted real names. We've temporarily submitting new names and are trying to delete the thousands of entries for "Siberia."

How about deleting the thousands of entries for "Reach?" I mean, how is that even an appropriate for a planet name? I vote for Manaan (KOTOR reference).

I vote Aquas. It's the name of the planet is Starfox 64 that got completely flooded and you had to use to Blue Marine to beat it.

Yeah, brackenwood is the only thing I can think of at the moment that deals with NG.

I was totally going to suggest the name "cocks" but it looks like the widget is broken.

I am honestly awful with names, but i think you should name it "Destiny", for it could be the closest-to-earth planet we could ever find. Maybe it was our destiny to find and inhabit this planet?

I think Aquarius sounds fitting is kinda catchy. Scientific version can be Aquarius Orgondas.

I'd say "Atlantis" would be one of the most fitting names for it, or maybe simply "Ocean". Like how this planet is called "Earth", yet a majority of the surface is covered in water.

I think this is the most fitting of all the recommendations in this thread thus far.

We've been going for Greek and Roman mythology for a while, and now we break the intellectual barrier with a name like "Reach".

God, I hate people.

I like Gallifrey because I'm a huge fan of Doctor Who.

Woah, I think it's a garuntee that 'Reach' will be picked.

Atlantis would be a fitting name.

It's a waterworld and planets are usually named after something from Mythology.

Charybis or Scylla sound nice. Aquaris or Atlantis are good too.

I say we change Neptune's name to "That Fucko No One Cares About" and we baptize the new planet and the god of Ocean...
