## Why "Jeremiah Fieldhaven"?
|
||||||
|
Essentially, it started off as a bit of silliness. I had been playing [Sunless Sea](https://www.failbettergames.com/games/sunless-sea)
|
||||||
|
and there was a place on my map not far from Wolfstack Docks called "Fieldhaven's Rest".
|
||||||
|
At the same time, I decided I wanted to start over in [Elite Dangerous](https://www.elitedangerous.com/)
|
||||||
|
with a new commander, so I was looking for a name. I decided it would be Very Silly
|
||||||
|
to have a spaceship commander with a Victorean-era sounding name flying around in
|
||||||
|
the 3300s world of Elite, so I set about coming up with a suitably ridiculous name.
|
||||||
|
With "Fieldhaven" in my head as a surname for this commander, I chose a likely
|
||||||
|
looking forename from a list of 1800s names. And thus [Jeremiah Fieldhaven](https://www.edsm.net/en/user/badges/id/26401/cmdr/Jeremiah+Fieldhaven)
|
||||||
|
came into existence. I connected with other Elite Dangerous players on Twitter and
|
||||||
|
Discord with the same name, and the rest is history really.

Finding stuff on the internet in the [Year of Our Lady of Discord](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordian_calendar) 3191 is nigh impossible, so here are
