Generating a game title

Hi, I’m working on a Space Exploration RPG game and currently struggling with a name.

I’ll give some context -

  • Players are able to explore a vast Galaxy with ships that can be purchased and upgraded.
  • Players are able to visit planets within the Galaxy.
  • Players are able to upgrade their weapons both on ground and in-space through levelling up.

It’s aimed at being an MMO with story aspects etc.
However, I’m struggling to generate names that stick - some examples:

  • O R B I T: Online
  • OuterOcean
  • StarLands
  • OuterStar
  • S T A R: Online
  • BEYOND
  • Galaxia
  • Nxt Galaxy

What would these stand for? Usually when title’s are presented this way, they stand for something, like
Super Tricky Astronaut Race or something.

I usually go to name generator websites (video game name generators) and generate a bunch, then pick a few that matches the topic, then combine the names to create something unique.

At this point I’m just messing around with titles on-screen to see if any stand out.

The way you presented ORBIT Online was really eye catching. In my opinion, ORBIT Online is a winner.

I think O R B I T is the most appealing. It should stand for something though, like what Crrustyy said.

@Crrustyy @ayaan94 Thanks guys!

I’m personally leaning towards:
ORBIT / ORBITUS / ORBITAL

Or

Galaxii: NXT

I think O R B I T: Online can be a cool name if a big space station or a space agency (like NASA) in the game was called O R B I T
