[recensere] How much desired?

Can we really want Index nominum alternorum civitatum Americae? I know it's a great thing that American states have official nicknames -- I remember, when I was about 8, being bemused by a list of them in the Information Please Almanac -- but they are English. We can't invent Latin equivalents, can we? That would be original research. So what would there be to put in this page? Andrew Dalby 14:54, 18 Februarii 2007 (UTC)

(Remark: This link is part of {{Civitas Americae}}. Maybe it was just translated from the English aequivalent. --Rolandus 15:22, 18 Februarii 2007 (UTC))
Well, Florida, the Sunshine State, must certainly be Civitas Solis. When I was growing up, the local chamber of commerce had a weeklong event called the Fiesta del Sol. (That was long before the influx of Cuban-speakers.) Not Latin, but enough to show local non-Hispanic interest in a language of which Latin is the source. ;) IacobusAmor 17:57, 18 Februarii 2007 (UTC)
