This is a list of my graticule name suggestions. These names are not officially approved yet (as much as there is such a thing as official approval)... so if anyone has a comment please post it either after the name in question - or on the talk page if it's long and/or general!

70N and up

65-69N

65,33 - Engozero, Russia

  • The largest town in the graticule by far (though admittedly close to the border). Also the largest lake in the graticule (probably much better known than the town).

65,34 - Kuzema, Russia

  • The largest town in the graticule by far.

60-64N

55-59N

50-54N

40-49N

42,28 - Silistar Beach, Bulgaria

  • There's several places named Silistar in this graticule - seemingly more than any other name combined in fact - but simply naming it Silistar (as I originally wanted) would've made it hopelessly confused with the much larger town of Silistra in the other end of the country. So one had to be chosen, and IMHO the beach is much more recognizable :-)

30-39N

20-29N

0-19N

0S and down
