I suggest not having any name other than "The Southern Army" or any
other similar descriptive term ("Army of the Sourthern Region").
- I'm still crispy over the whole "Southern regional name" discussion.
- I cannot think of a period name for an army, other than things like
"the English army" or "the Duke of Norfolk's men".
- I emphatically do not want a non-period name, especially one with
modern resonance. E.g., "Rolling Thunder" is a group of good
people, but an older person or someone with knowledge of recent
military history thinks "the Vietnam War".
