Could it be a Quay and have access to the river too? Would be useful for a variety of in game reasons.
Not where we want to put it, I'm afraid

Cirian Circle or Cirian Square does have a ring to it.

I'm also not finding any references to his characters in my logs, so could be a good tribute.

Could it be its own branch of the river that gets added?

We're going to introduce it ICly, rather than retcon it, so using an existing area.

I like the play on the priest's quarter, but I'd rather the name was a little more obvious to those who don't already know. Maybe something like 'Confession's Close'? 'Oh, yeah, I'm going to Confession' 'Confession's definitely close after a trip to Confession's Close' - same idea, but it strikes me as a little more overtly sinful sounding. Hm. Not sure about the name itself but the idea of playing on the words is fun

I'm not sure if perhaps different people might refer to the area differently (IE sort of like how the Tubori Baronies have different names among the upper and lower classes).

But with that in mind I'm tempted to suggest the term/name 'demimonde' among the upper class folks who go slum diving there. While perhaps the lower classes call it the Close?

There can certainly be different names for different people to use! We have to pick the one name to put in roster though. Added a new poll: https://ti-legacy.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=2422
