The name critera are described in [1], and this time around we were looking for names starting with U associated with China. With some extra assistance from local community members (thank you to everyone who helped!), we have a list of candidate names that will go into the poll. Below is a subset of the names propsed, including those that meet the standard criteria and some of the suggestions that do not. Before we start the poll, the process calls for us to provide a period of 1 week so that any names removed from the proposals can be discussed and any last-minute objections can be raised. We will start the poll next week using this list, including any modifications based on that discussion.

For the above options, it's not common to use [GR] system, in Shanghai (or almost entire China area). So if we like to reduce confusion and unnecessary arguments also to get recognized by audiences (as width as we can), I don't think these are good choices.
As for all below geographic options, most of them originally from different languages like Mongolian or Russian, so generally speaking, most people won't use Pingyi system for that name. And I don't think it helps to put it's Pinyin on top too.
I think this might be my fault here. because it's *Ussuri*! so let's s/Ussri/Ussuir/ (bad Rico! bad!)
