Greetings!

I am an out-Kingdom lurker on this list, but I couldn't help but chime 
in on this one. In Artemisia, there is a Shire in the town that is the 
state capital. Originally they submitted Castelleone - Lion Castle in 
Spanish. This was returned for further work because of conflict with the 
Kingdom of CastileLeon in the September 1997  LoAR. They really wanted 
this name, so the addition of 'Nuovo' made the group name Castelleone 
Nuovo and this was registered in December of 1998.

For years after that, I kept hearing people refer to the Shire of 
Castelleone. At one time, all the group names for the Kingdom were read 
out during a Coronation ceremony and the Shire of Castelleone was given 
without the Nuovo added. I was told by many Shire members that 'the 
Nuovo was silent'. I still have gotten them to consistently use the 
entire Shire name.

So, this is not something only in one Kingdom. :-)
