[Storyline]The Ancients

The only thing preventing the name COLONY from taking over is the fact that Melian used it in MM6, and he / she was a Guardian who would have known the world's true name. But as I said it's likely Melian only used "Enroth" so that the adventurers could understand what they were talking about.

So there is no reason why they should know true name of the planet?

Well, first beings on this planet were more advanced than we are now.
They should known planet name and it's symbol on Ancients' starmaps (something like: XYZ-123 in sector 675).
After Silence they deevolved to barbarian state but as we can read in MM6-8 they not forgot from where they come - they just can't understand properly they legends.
And planet name should been in one of their legends, so some scholars (like Xanthos) could find it.


About Colony and rest of topic - I reply this another day/week - I'm to tired to post properly, not speakong about thinking properly.

Oh, it's good to see that COLONY is returning to use as the name of the world. I had accepted Enroth as the only canon name and I don't really know where "COLONY" comes from or what it stands for (or if it's even from a canon source or not), but this name really goes in line with all those others like CRON, VARN and XEEN.

COLONY has no place in canon. The planet's name is Enroth. Sure, in fanon one can tie this name in how ever he wants, but in canonical games and sources COLONY is nowhere to be found, only Enroth is being used as the planet's name, even by the Guardian.
