I can not find any information on the names of the seas or oceans of Sosaria. If anyone knows if our oceans and seas have names please post them in this thread otherwise we should make some up.

Actually that woud be pretty cool to name them if they dont have names.

Well Ambrosia is Ambrosia, I am pretty sure he meant sosaria. In which case I'm uncertain. In Ultima six they do have a name for the center body of water that contains Moonglow, Magincia, Buc's den, Occlo, etc. It's simply called
"The Great Sea"

I propose all the Felucca seas be known as "The Beleth"

It pretty much says everything he'd want to say though no?

On an aside...I believe Sid is right with the names.

I have the original cloth map from one of the first releases. No names of oceans though.

The Great Sea is the only named sea we have, can that name be confirmed?

We should split the water into segments and start dishing out some names

I have done some research....it seems that they are all just water. Except the lost lands...thats special water with names.

AFAIK, the sea in ultima is named "The Sea." >.>

There are however two bodies of water that I've found:

Lock Lake (2 sources)

http://www.thealmightyguru.com/Reviews/Ultima/Ultima-Encyclopedia.html

Lost Lake (1 source)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Britannia_%28Ultima%29

I claimed the water around Hawaii about a year ago. So you're a bit late on that.
