it has a nice ring to it if you keep it the way it was originally 
technically terranigma translates as 'mystery of the earth' but that wouldnt sound as cool

5 years ago at school, a friend kept pointing that out to me
"Oh, you're visiting earthearth again, huh? What are you talking about? Soil?"
(since earth also translates as soil in german) |

EarthEarth? It sounds don't right. I like TerraEarth better.
By the way, do you know that solar system we live in is called Terran System? Many video games used 'terra' or 'terran' name for human factions.

Actually, Terra is Greek for "Monster". So it should be MonsterEarth.

ALL HAIL TO TERRAN EMPIRE!
Terran Empire is from mirror universe in Star Trek series. Terran System (Sol System or Sector 001) is also used in Star Trek series too.

Sorry to rain on your parade there Jason, but the Greek for "Monster" is Tera, not Terra; they have entirely unrelated linguistic roots, but are just coincidentally pronounced the same way.
Hence why a Terabyte is a monstrous quantity of bytes, not a ground-byte. |
