Now that we have successfully named the continents and major landmasses, I think it's time to have a look at the important bodies of water. Before we proceed to the actual naming, we should agree what to name. I have identified the following bodies of water. What do you think? Add or remove stuff?

EDIT: Updated with a map without feautires that are located entirely within individual plots.

I don't think 9 and 22 really need separate names, they should probably be named the same thing after 10 perhaps?

10 is the sea directly between the Central Islands, the whole ocean between the continents is already called The South Pacific Ocean.

1) Incognita (The Unknown)
2)
3)
4)
5)
6)
7)
8) Blue Cordilia
9) Hesperides Sea
10) The Breve Ocean (because "breve" is brief/short in spanish, and comes from the latin word "brevis"; besides, the word for "shortcut" is "sum brevis". Furthermore, "breve" sounds very similar in spanish to other words related to the water and its uses, like "beber"/to drink, or "abrevadero"/drinking through. All of this arguments are exposed because of the supposed use of travelling through this ocean as a brief or even easiest way to get to the opposite landmass). Brevero could be another option.
11)
12)
13)
14) The End (the exit of the main currents into the inner ocean).
15)
16)
17)
18)
19)
20)
21)
22) The Neverending Storm (because Keyli could be like Antarctica and be surrounded by a furious ocean).
23) Cold Gates (the entrance of the main currents into the inner ocean).
