I like 'fealty' being included in the name.

(A name relating BM to primogeniture would be particularly inappropriate imo, since family inheritance of titles is just about the biggest single area where BM diverges from medieval norms)

It would be appropriate for a BM-like game to be called "Age of ____" considering the map graphics used are likely to be from Age of Wonders. It also sounds very pleasant.

I don't like the "Legacy of ____" names, because they make me think of something more fantasy oriented like Warhammer, where there's wizards and whatnot running around lusting for blood and power.

"____ of the Sword" names aren't good, because they sound like book names. They make me think of the tale of Excalibur, not so much of a sandbox MMO game with no general plotline.

"fealty" is a weak-sounding word. Replacing it with just about *any* word gives you a much stronger, and more assertive-sounding title.
If at first you don't succeed, don't take up skydiving.

I do like the current name choice of, Might and Fealty. Based on what Tom has said in both of the threads on it, the name fits perfectly.

Fealty, politics, medieval age.... sounds like oaths. Here are names based on oaths:

Age of Oaths
Oath's Age
Blood and Oaths
Oathcastle
Islands of Oaths
Oathlands

A name that came to me was "Order & Chaos".

The orderliness of realms and fealty etc and the chaos of intrigues, revolts and war.

Ha I like your options as its serve me or die but I guess you do have that option in this game where in BM unless you were a rogue you basically had to serve somebody.

I like the idea of going a little more dark...little less regal and more gritty.
