Romulan Fleet Name?

My vote is "Tal D'era"


http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/The_Way_of_D%27era

Hi ya we've been also talking about this in the Romulan emabassy. We're getting lots of cool names you should join us.

Rei'nhaihhon (Ren-Hi-Hoan) or Imperial Stonewall
Tal jorreh'honn (Tal john-ray-hone)Tal Stonewall
Tal nhaih'honn (Tal Hi-Hoan) Tal Stonewall

I do like Tal Stonewall don,t get me wrong. D'era is an actual Romulan word. Just my opinion.

I do agree that it should be in Romulan I usedRihansu/Romulan Dictionary for my translation of the Stone {(jorreh -stone (material or surface) nhaih (D)pebble, stone, rock (n)} and wall (honn)

I kind of favor Tal Stonewall but I could live with Tal Dera!

I like Rai'nheihonn (sp?) myself.

Rei'nhaihhon or Imperial Stonewall gets my vote. In Romulan of course.

Mine is easy to remember and spell fast. Just saying.
And I complete respect SaintPlazma idea.

You forgot easier to say :)

No word for "centurions" in Romulan that we know of--but "legionnaires" is close: rei'karanha--maybe that plus a translation for Stonewall. (Romulan is going to be a bit unwieldy no matter how we slice it.)

Centurion is "arrain"
My phone keeps trying to translate the words from Welsh. Makes sense considering Romulan is based off the Celtic language famly

:P Rubber Baby Buggy Bumpers :P

Just my two pents!

Really? Cool! So the plural just adds an "a", right? arraina? Jorreh'honn Arraina or something like that?

As I said in the embassy I think we should tie our name to the Roman Republic convention as opposed to the Roman Empire as we're going to be a Republic...at least for now ::crosses fingers for a restored and glorious Roman...uh Romulan Empire::

I like the idea, but I didn't think we are part of new Romulus

I'm pretty sure we will be part of the Republic under D'tan and not the Imperial or Tal'shiar remnants under Sela. At least that's what I gleaned from the mini site.

Closest word to republic I could find is aetheaa (assembly of people)
Jorreh'honn Aetheaa
Nhaih'honn Aetheaa

I believe so

I was ready to suggest something related to 'Mnhei’Sahe'* but it's awkward to type and probably difficult to pronounce, and not to get all RP on the issue (but I'd love to) we need our context to make the right choice. Perhaps a home-grown backstory that incorporates the history without requiring us to conform to the quite awful parts of the canon culture imperatives? (Really Star Trek can oversimplify to the point of racism. All s have characteristic.)

Absent any major storytelling on our part, Tal D'era is pithy and succinct.

Personally i would prefer if the fleet name had neither Empire or Republic in it.
Empire is inaccurate (curse you Abrams) and Republic sticks in my craw.
