"NewDaedalus" sounds very sci-fi. Like one of those planets futurepeople colonize and name after some important town, region or concept from their far-flung past.

"Welcome to NewDaedalus, Captain. I am Administrator Cronin. I hope your crew enjoys their shore leave on our little paradise planet. We live an idyllic life here, with no deep, dark secrets that should concern you. Not a one of us is a salt-sucking vampire or soul-stealing succubus, neither does the entire population consist of baby-eating, cannibalistic mutant freakazoids. There aren't any ravenous beasts living in the peaceful meadows and glades that surround our city, nor is there a weapons factory hidden deep beneath the planet's surface. If you've heard any unpleasant rumors that the colony was wiped out by a plague eons ago and we are merely the restless spirits of long-gone people who died horrible, agonizing deaths, well... that's just silly. Can I interest you in an unpoisoned drink that is refreshing and flavorful and not laces with hallucinogenic mind-control drugs?"
