A good naming site is Fantasy name generators. Names for all your fantasy characters.

Watabou City REVISED (annual 157)
The first most important thing is to just export as a SVG the actual elements you want and cut out all the pretty stuff. It is, after all, the street and building layout that we really want.
So ... in the generator, first check colour - make this either B&W, or Ink in the Presets.
Next, click on Style in the generator, and make sure you check or uncheck the following. Whatever I don't mention, you can choose as you wish.
- GRAPHICS: Check thin lines, leave the rest unchecked.
- ELEMENTS: Districts Hidden. Check scalebar only (if you want it, leave the rest unchecked
- BUILDINGS: Roofs plain, leave Raised unchecked. Otherwise, choose what you want.
- OUTLINE: Check buildings, and UNCHECK water and roads. They will seem to disappear, but will be present in the SVG and thus DXF
- MISC: Check Solids; Uncheck Show alleys and Show trees.
- FARMS: Choose plain. Though you can exclude farms if you like and use drawing tools provided to put them where you want. However, the drawing tools will work on the farms if exported as Plain.
- For those interested, you can get the number of buildings and suggested population if you click on SETTLEMENTS. However, I think the population does not take into account density of population, nor multistorey buildings, so the population levels for larger cities can easily be double the suggested number in the generator.
As you can see from the example map, I have done all that.
Now export as SVG (and Png if you want).

[WIP] Community Atlas Competition - Artemisia - Spiros Isle - Aretizo village
This is the village I will be submitting for the competition - a population of 350. These are the map notes already written about it.
Aretizo (SW coast) – pop 350. A fishing village, especially around the Iamexos Reefs where a special fish, the garum, is used to make a delicious fishpaste, manufactured at the Monastery, and exported to the Irisian City States and beyond.
This is its location.
I really would like to keep Spiros island only for me to map, if that is OK.
