Here's some more brainstorming about each duchy in Fynnwyck. These are the things that I want to keep in mind when I'm designing the map. Again, I used names derived from the list of generic place names in the U.K. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_generic_forms_in_place_names_in_the_United_Kingdom_and_Ireland) I like how the names are hanging together well. If I expand the world into other kingdoms, I'll use the place names from other countries to make them seem really foreign.
