Rename "Hazeron Starship" to "Shores of Hazeron" Poll

#1
I believe that "Shores of Hazeron" is a name with a ring to it, as well as a history. A name that would stir the emotions even if you didn't know what it referred to. Where are these shores? What is the strange sea that laps against them? What alien gulls cry in the waves there at twilight? 

It also doesn't contain the words, "star", "space" or "ship". It tells the potential player that someone has thought about the content of this game - specific lore, perhaps interesting stories - and not just made a simulator with an excuse for a setting. This sets it apart from the annoyingly narrow repertoire of space game names currently on offer ("Star Citizen", "Starmade", "Space Engineers", "Starship Evo", "Starbound"...).

The MMO is gone for good. There is no danger of confusion. Returning players looking for Shores of Hazeron would be able to find its replacement. Why not replace "Hazeron Starship", which always hits me as a "secondary" name, like "Coke Zero", with the flagship name we all know and love, and make sound like, instead of a vestigial holdout, a true successor?
