What to name my colony/faction/characters?

[Super_]

I need a colony name, faction name and nicknames for my colonists. I need inspiration or examples rather than one word answers. If you can list as many as you think sound good, I will pick parts of the best ones to create my own.

The reason it is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ impossible for me to come up with an idea is because the game forces you to pick a name "instantly" and you can't change it without editing.

If you decide that you want to change your colony name, use dev mode, just found this out recently.

I name my colony depending on the way I want them to act, if I want to be a hostile colony I name my colony Notorious, If i want to be a friendly colony I name my colony Crashlanded or The New Frontier (From the TT, The Walking Dead, yes >.<).

I nickname my colonist depending what thier name is and what they do, I nicknamed Dominic to Doominator because one time I equiped him with a triple rocket laucher and he blew pirates off to sea, litterally they were all walking across the lake and BOOM, rip pirates.

I found out about dev mode just now too!

25% of my time in Rimworld has been deciding on a name since you can't save it until you've decided. Knowing it's not permanent is really good.

My colonists:
A violent thug who became a paramedic.
A war torn refugee who likes to start new wars.
A dumb celebrity who became a genius teacher.

Names don't matter too much, they don't have to match with there life style.
