    Foundation name




    The names of cities all reference the name of the city in the teleport menu:
    Limsa Lominsa Lower Decks
    New Gridania
    Ul'dah-Steps of Nald
    Kugane
    Rhalgr's Reach
    Crystarium
    Eulmore

    But Ishgard is called:
    Foundation

    Can we call the "area" Ishgard, and the "aetheryte" Foundation?
    Its confusing to new players to call the area Foundation when it's the Holy See of Ishhgard.

    I feel like that's why "Ul'dah" was put into "Ul'dah-Steps of Nald" and then they completely forgot to do that for Ishgard. Yeah, this would be a nice simple (hopefully) improvement.

    It would have to be the other way around - the zone is Foundation (vs the upper zone being the Pillars) but the aetheryte could be named Ishgard.

    Alternately the zone could be renamed to "Ishgard - Foundation" to bring it in line with all other major cities including the city name in their zone names.

    It would definitely be helpful to have the name Ishgard somewhere in the teleport list so you can see it at a glance.
