Each sheet combines a logo and wordmark, a visual explanation of the name, and a short concept statement. The original name spellings are preserved.
New word interpretations are labeled Proposed reading. The other explanations follow the project's naming notes. These are generated concept artworks; the logos are embedded in the PNG sheets.
cryo + zorb + ocean
Ice, sphere and hidden ocean fold into one name: a small world that reveals something fluid within.
A crystalline circular shell opening around a flowing ocean wave; the negative-space center hints at a projected human profile.
Palette: glacial cyan, deep ocean blue, pearl.
twin + tide + lumen
Paired forms move through watery light. Twin carries the doubling; lume carries the glow; tide softens the seam.
Two luminous offset discs sharing one tidal ribbon, like a moon and its watery double.
Palette: pale gold, turquoise, midnight blue.
cryo + squish
An icy name with a soft landing: a hard-looking moon becomes something fluid, tactile and playfully alive.
A gently squashed moon-circle with a crisp ice crown and rounded wave base; clever restrained playful logo, no mascot face.
Palette: ice blue, coral, cream.
geyser + gleam
A jet catches the light. The hidden ocean announces itself through a bright, exuberant plume.
A vertical water plume rises through an incomplete lunar ring and resolves into a four-point gleam.
Palette: electric cyan, silver, warm white.
gibbous + borne
A proposed reading: a swelling moon, borne on water and light. The name feels lunar, rounded and gently in motion.
An asymmetrical gibbous moon carried by a single long wave, almost a boat but abstract.
Palette: bone white, cobalt, muted amber.
cyclic + paddle
A proposed reading: recurring motion meets a playful paddle. Circular rhythms turn water, body and moon into a shared dance.
Three paddle-like petals rotating around an open moon disc; diagram traces a circular rhythm without gears.
Palette: lagoon turquoise, tangerine, cream.
bio + luna + iris
Life enters a moon that also behaves like an eye: a luminous sphere holding the suggestion of a living presence.
A lunar iris made of three flowing petal arcs, with one organic pupil-like pool and subtle orbital outline.
Palette: sea green, soft amber, pearl.
caustic + cuddle
Concentrated light becomes an embrace. The optical sense of caustic meets the warmth of people gathering around a luminous sphere.
Two caustic-light ribbons curve around a moon like an embrace; no hands required, spare emblem.
Palette: warm peach, aquatic cyan, ivory.
prism + rift + drift
A proposed reading: light splits, an icy seam opens, and a world drifts between forms. The name suggests an artistic movement.
A split circular prism with three restrained refracted bands drifting through its rift.
Palette: spectral mint, amber, coral on ink.
visage + geyser
A proposed reading: a face emerges through a plume of light. Human expression and the moon's hidden ocean share one surface.
A human profile defined only by the negative space between an arc of moon and a rising plume.
Palette: frost white, vivid teal, small vermilion accent.
momma mia + miasma
A proposed reading: an exclamation dissolves into theatrical mist. It brings affectionate absurdity to an enveloping moon-world.
A billowing ribbon forms a theatrical open oval and a small exclamation glint, warm playful elegant poster identity.
Palette: mist blue, tomato red, butter yellow.
apsis + soma
An orbital turning point meets a body. A human presence becomes a celestial body as the sphere changes its appearance.
An elliptical orbit pinched into a subtle torso-shaped negative space, with two apsis dots and one luminous moon.
Palette: ivory, oxidized copper, ocean blue.
melt + tidal
Ice becomes an imagined tide. A shared letter turns a frozen-looking shell into a compact story of fluid transformation.
A circular ice cap transitions smoothly into a rising tidal curve; one continuous emblem with a melt-drop gap.
Palette: pale ice, ultramarine, seafoam.
iris + salt
An optical opening meets a saline ocean. A ring of light reveals a briny, hidden world.
An aperture-ring surrounding a wave and a tiny faceted salt crystal; diagram keeps optical and ocean motifs distinct.
Palette: salt white, mineral aqua, cobalt.
bobble + invented -ium
Buoyant motion becomes an imaginary material: a little moon made of wobble, with a gently mock-scientific name.
An off-center buoyant circle with two small orbital bubbles and a curved meniscus, like a playful element emblem without fake atomic data.
Palette: sky cyan, apricot, chalk white.
fissure + -esque
A crack-patterned moon with movement imagined beneath it. The visible name foregrounds the ice shell; tide remains a conceptual seed.
A bold circular disk divided by one elegant branching fissure with a sliver of water-light showing through.
Palette: glacier white, teal, midnight.
beam + -esque
Projected light becomes a style of being. Kindle supplies the warmth behind the idea, without surviving as visible letters.
A clean cone of light entering a circle and opening into a softly radiant crescent; highly graphic.
Palette: pale gold, cream, deep teal.
zorb + Cassini
A proposed reading: the playful sphere meets the exploratory spirit of Cassini. A compact name for curiosity orbiting a small world.
An oblique orbital sweep around a moon-like sphere, a tiny exploratory glint instead of a literal spacecraft; no institutional insignia.
Palette: burnished gold, glacial blue, ivory.
zen + Enceladus
A proposed reading: stillness meets an ocean moon. A quiet circle holds the possibility of movement beneath its surface.
A near-complete ink-like circular ring with a single quiet wave and tiny plume notch, calm and deliberate.
Palette: mist green, ivory, graphite navy.
zen + Enceladus + dusty
A proposed reading: a calm ocean moon picks up a playful dusty ending. Celestial wonder becomes approachable and a little mischievous.
A quiet circular moon whose trailing edge loosens into five deliberate dust dots, with one liquid arc retained.
Palette: sage, dusty gold, cream.
Enceladus + dusty
A proposed reading: an icy ocean moon becomes a dusty, affectionate nickname. The collision of ice and dust adds character.
A crisp fractured moon circle trailing warm dust flecks opposite a small ice plume; contrast of textures, simple mark.
Palette: ice blue, terracotta dust, warm ivory.
familiar sphere + unexpected world
The apparent play-sphere becomes something stranger: a moon, an ocean, and a living image. The name makes that reveal the joke.
A simple outer sphere peels into a moon arc and ocean wave, with a tiny face-like negative-space reflection; no franchise graphics.
Palette: lunar white, saturated cyan, warm orange.
