Animal Jam World Name meanings

Animal jam... yes we log on almost every day. We see the new loading screen and then choose a world. You often just glance over the worlds, not paying attention to their meanings. What exactly do the worlds names actually mean? Well i did some research on most of the names. Here is what i found out...

Aldan: A river in Siberia
Tigress: A female tiger (and Tigris is a river in Mesopotamia)
Danube: River in central Europe
Congo: River in Africa (deepest river in the world!)
Grande: Spanish word for big (Rio Grande is a river on the border of Texas and Mexico.)
Nile: River in Africa (longest river in the world!)
Belaya: River in Russia
Gila: A lizard called the Gila lizard (and a river in Colorado)
Chimbu: Is a river in the Simbu Provice of Papua New Guinea.
Zambezi: A river in Zambia, Africa.
Draa: A large sand dune (yay finally not a river!)
Kama: River in Europe (Also Indian god of Love)
Pecos: River in Mexico (Aw another river?)
Ramu: A river in Papua New Guinea.
Elbe: A river in central Europe
Ganges: River in India (also known as the Ganga river)
 Amur: River in Asia (this is way too many rivers -.-)
Asaro: Last name of the famous painter, John Asaro
Bakoy: River in west Africa
Sawtooth: A type of wave
Desna: River in Russia
Kilimanjaro: volcanic mountian in tanzania
Cimarron: river in new mexico
 Himilaya: mountian range in India
Atlas: A collection of maps or charts
Culgoa: River in europe
Wasatch: A part of the rocky mountians
Sierra nevada: A mountian range in spain
Alps: mountian range in europe
Comet: A shooting star
Flint: A kind of stone (also a river in America)
Burke: River in Europe
Bremer: River in europe
Calle : River in chili (spanish word for street)
Brazos: River in new mexico
Drava: River in austria

Well that is boring! They are mostly named after rivers! Hmm... why would worlds of a mythical place be named after rivers on Earth? Anyways, comment and tell me what you think!

    Sorry Millicy I didn't know that I am really really sorry!




    omewhere over the rainbow, way up high
    There's a land that I've heard of once in a lullaby.
    Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue
    And the land that is there is called something like Jamaa

    That's my modified version of Somewhere over the Rainbow.

    Again, I'm sorry Millicy!
