Every place in the RWBY world is named a real word, regardless of whether the place is actually what the word means or not.


 * Vale: Vale means valley. Does the City fo Vale look like a valley?


 * Atlas: An atlas is a collection of maps. The kingdom of Atlas is located on the very northern continent.


 * Vytal: A misspelling of vital. It's a region or a continent that Vale is located in. Pretty sure we all know what vital means.


 * Mantle: The region or continent that Atlas is part of. A mantle is something that covers, envelops, or seals.


 * Mistral: A mistral is a cold, dry wind common in southern France and neighboring regions.


 * Vacuo: Vacuo means "in a vacuum" or "in isolation."

Menagerie's name actually fits what the humans tried to use the continent for, as the word menagerie refers to a place where animals are kept in captivity. The faunus would've been kept trapped on that continent, and faunus are often seen as animals. I don't see why the continent can't be called Menagerie.
