No doubt this has been discussed before somewhere, but I was wondering whether people had suggestions for the first permanent human settlement on Mars.
My favourites:
1. Humanity
2. New World
3. Homopolis
4. Martis/Martis City

colony A?

That's a bit boring as far as I'm concerned.
You could at least make it Alpha City.

I wouldn't give it a fanciful name until we know what its like.
When we know what its like to live there and get a good feel for it, we could give it an apropriate name.

In the USA colonists often changed the name of their place after a few years of settlement. No harm in starting off with something alluring!

Its Mars.... how more alluring can it be? People would chop of a right arm to go!
I'm not into fanciful names until I get a feel of things. A good name will come, but it has to develop naturally from being there
I would start of with colony A, and let the settlers rename it after a few years based on what it means to them!!

I respect your viewpoint, Gregori. This isn't a PR exercise. But I guess I just have a personal bias towards the inspiring. "Apollo" was a good choice, much better than say M1.

How about "AT LAST"
The way things are going it might well be the first words spoken on Mars.
