Henry d'Esterre Darby 3,806 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I love the idea, but we don't even know if there will be taverns in Open World. That said, what better place to keep this going than in the Tavern. Let's see, I like: The Drunken Sailor Dog Watch The Rusty Anchor The Spirit Room 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thomas Blackwell 400 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Please kindly consider having a tavern in Port de Prince named the Black Mongoose. It's kind of a big deal for some of us... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rutger Van Hoorn 14 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Doesn't have to be all Ingles-ish right? Just throwing some potential Dutch tavern names around: De Zeven Zonden (The Seven sins) De Zeerover (The "sea-robber" ~= casual word for pirate) Het Groot Genot (literally "the large enjoyment") De Hoorn des Overvloeds (The Horn of Plenty / Cornucopia) De Vliegvis (the flying fish) Moeders mooiste ("mommy's prettiest...")

Henry d'Esterre Darby 3,806 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Doesn't have to be all Ingles-ish right? Just throwing some potential Dutch tavern names around: Of course they don't have to be English! I'd heartily hope that taverns would be named in the local language. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rutger Van Hoorn 14 Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Rutger's Alehouse I can't argue with that one! All aboard! (or more accurately.. all under the table...) I guess as Flemish we could be exporting beer. After all, Stella Artois dates back to 1366 Attempting a few French ones (it's a bit rusty so please feel free to correct, dear francophiles!): La Mouette Fou (The crazy seagull) Le Poissson (word play on fish=poisson and poison=poisson) La Sirène Laide (the ugly mermaid) La Fantôme de l'épave (the ghost of the sunken ship) I'll leave others to actual French speakers 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

FrancisDrake 0 Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 There's a pub in Hayle, Cornwall called the bucket of blood. Out her good sou'wester pubs are the highwayman, the Jamaica inn, the Turks head, the quayside, the trafalgar and the victory! In fact any port of a reasonable size would provide excellently named watering holes regardless of geographic location! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
