The town mostly looks like Cape May in New Jersey, USA, a beachside town where many of the Victorian- era architectures have been preserved, and also famous as a romantic getaway kind of place.

So, anyone would like to suggest a name?

thanks for the help, in advance.

Is there a reason you can't just use Cape May (one of my favorite places! I say we have time travel towns here in NJ. You go from the 50's Doo Wop buildings in Wildwood, down the road to the late 19th century in Cape May).

Is your fictional town a shore town or no, which would be a reason not to use it - if it's not actually on a cape.
