One time I asked Royal Robbins about "The Dawn Wall".

He replied "No, no. Warren named it The Wall of Early Morning Light. That's such a grand and beautiful name, it's a shame to call it the Dawn Wall."

I've called it The Wall of Early Morning Light ever since.

As someone also said, I like the play on more famous route names, or even the interplay of routes names on a single crag:

The Wall of Early Morning Fright - somewhere in Sequoia

Catch a Falling Star; Catch a Falling Car; and Catch Me in the Bar - JT classics

Moosedog Tower - JT feature named after its slightly larger cousin in Pakistan

My Derbyshire Gritsone favorite - Arnold Schwarzenegger Stole My Body

Now I also have a name, that is without a route. I have been saving it up for a special FA:

It's Sh#t, But I Climbed It First!
