Our name of the island was named after the explorer John Reyner- Nobody Glad you agree Ray, i am nobody, i'm doing the origin of name for our group-nobody Well, because he likes the sound of Reyner island and that is what most people do when they discover new lands, for example Amerigo Vespucci found america, and america is named after Amerigo-Nobody

You are right __//**Wayne**//__, (haha i know who you are!) That is true, our island was named after our founder John Reyner. -Ray Why did John Reyner named Reyner Island after himself?- Someone who is __**//NOT//**__ Alanna John Reyner named Reyner Island after himself because he found the island __//**Alanna**//__, I know it is you. -Ray I know that Ray, but WHY would he name the island after himself? Why didn't he name it after the beauty in the island's nature? Why didn't he name it after an animal that wasn't discovered before? Why would he name it after himself when there are so many other things he could name it after? Alanna Look at Tasmania, why is it named "Tasmania"? Because **Tasman** discovered it.Why is America named "America"? Because **Amerigo** realized it is another peice of land. Why is their a **Cook** Strait? Becuase James **Cook** discovered it. So that might be why John **Reyner** called it **Reyner** island. -Ray precisely.-Wayne Actually, Amerigo didn't DISCOVER The Americas, the Native Americans did! If he discovered it, than there would've been no people on the continet, and I wouldn't exsist, because I'M part Cherokee! And who in the world is Tasman? The people who named China, did they name it after Chi Na? Did they name Austrailia after Austin Railia? Did they name Egypt after E.G. Ypt? NO! Most countries are named after someting else! Alanna >:-( I never said Amerigo **//__DISCOVER__//** America, he named it and realized it wasn't India, unlike christopher Columbus. **//__TASMAN__//** is an explorerer who found //__**TASMANIA**__//. If you say that, you have to give more examples, then who **did** name China, who named Austrailia, who named Egypt? And there is the Hudson river. And I thought we agreed on the name was Reyner Island. -Ray

If you have any concerns of the name, just talk to him.-Wayne** Wayne, that was what I was trying to tell Alanna, our island is name after John Reyner. -Ray Ok....-Wayne I wasn't arguing about the name of the island, I like the island name, but I was wondering **__WHY__** the island was named after John Reyner! If I hated the name, I would have argued the first time the name was mentioned! You'd think that I would've waited until we were confortable with the name to argue about it? NO!! A very mad person >8c( But Alanna, we already told you **__WHY__** it was called Reyner Island. And the way you **wonder** about things is like you are fighting, cause you put a angry face at the end of a comment. -Ray Hmph! Well I never! Nobody who is American @>:c(
 * HEY! STOP YOUR QUARRELING!! our island is named after John Reyner! i repeat, John Reyner!!!! ok?????? yes, it is true that some countries are named after the founder and some countries are not, but our island is, ok?????????????? stop arguing, you guys aren't the people to decide, John Reyner is! so just listen to john Reyner.-Wayne

Hey, stop that fighting, both of you, you guys are polluting my page with quarrels!-Nobody Ok Wayne....... -Ray Okay, now what do we talk about? Alanna P.S. Ray, Egypt was named by the Anicent Egyptain preists, because they wanted to trick the Pharoh (the king) into thinking that the sun god, Ra (Re) named Egypt. China was named China because they make fine china. Austrailia was named by the English folks who had to live there for punishiment, and they liked this place so much, they wanted to live there. NOW are you happy? Alanna You shouldn't say "NOW are you happy?" because it looks like you want to quarrel again (I am not saying that you are wainting to). I don't know what to talk about. -Ray

um.. you guys, this is like some sort of cold war or something, let's stop quarreling, if you don't like the name Reyner island, Complain with John Reyner, her named it- Wayne
