Lol Ultramar is a hilarious name to give a planet. I want to be a fly on the wall during that first conversation "trust me, naming it this will make a bajiollion sense in the future. It'll pay off". Unless it was the other way around, then "hmmmmm yes I see this place is green and fertile to become a home for us Ultra Marines. And since it is our home we shall call it-" "I THINK WE SHOULD CALL IT YOUR GRAVE"
