Names for a colony on Mars

[Shiny Silvermoon 4,305]

I would call a colony on Mars "Giant Leap" as a tribute to Neil Armstrong and his famous quote "That's one small step for man. One giant leap for mankind."

I sincerely think that this would be an excellent name for the first human colony on Mars, since it would be a perfectly matching metaphor for an accomplishment as great as sending the first humans on Mars.

How about naming the colony:

Ack! Ack! Ack-ack-ack! ACK-ACK!!

I feel like the name would have to be related to Neil Armstrong or Yuri Gagarin in some way. Giant Leap is a good choice for Armstrong. For Gagarin maybe "Poyekhali" (basically means 'Let's Go!' I believe) which was what Gagarin said while taking off on Vostok 1.

I would call a Martian colony "Dylan". I believe it's a great name for great achievement of humankind. Right @Iforgotmybrain?
