I think the seas and oceans should be named now, as they're more apart of Eizon than any one country or continent. However, there's no reason why each area couldn't have a nickname for these places.

I think there are 4 areas of water that need names.

??? - SW of Dulake, NW of Estapora, SE of Spariva, NE of Baroke
??? - SE of Dulake, E of Shiny Islands, W of Amano, N of Cennora
??? - N of Amano, S of Amano, S of Cennora, SW of Baroke
??? - Area between Amano and Spariva

I'm assuming that the world loops around and is spherical so when you cross the east boundary, you end up on the west side of the map.

Indeed.

Kinju Sea - SW of Dulake, NW of Estapora, SE of Spariva, NE of Baroke
Naotsuna Sea - SE of Dulake, E of Shiny Islands, W of Amano, N of Cennora
Saeki Sea - N of Amano, S of Amano, S of Cennora, SW of Baroke
Lake Nyudo - Area between Amano and Spariva

Names based on the swordsmith Masamune and his students.

Only issue I have is that Lake Nyudo isn't actually a lake!

Would Nyudo Strait work as well? Though I'm not even sure "strait" is the correct term for a body of water like that.

Could always call it good old Delta Bay. Is it a bay?

I think we have a winner! Bay works for me. Delta or Nyudo? I don't mind either.

I'll go ahead and use Nyodu to stick with the theme for now unless someone objects. Updating the original post now; we're just about ready to start creating characters and cities!
