    The other solution would be to use generic English names than could be understood by everyone (once translated in their own language).

    Example: the largest continent could simply be called the Great continent.
    the flat continent, the mountainous continent, the cold...

    I proposed using generic labels specifically so that there wouldn't be any special status or precedency for any of the setting's nations. There's no reason we still couldn't make as many maps as we want with labels from every nation's particular POV and naming conventions. The generic labels would be a practical means to keep our work coordinated "under the hood", nothing more. And they would accomplish that without any favoritism.

    In that case we might as well stick to grid co-ordinates and just not worry about it.

    Better to avoid putting names on the map then. At least for now.

    Actually, what about using colours ? Each continent could have a colour and the subcontinent could have their own variation of the same colour.

    The colours don't have to represent anything for now.
