Wizet needed a name that was never used before. Maplestory was that name.

The end.

Story because they wanted each adventurer to make thier own story.

Maple because it sounds decent and you can use it as a standalone word (maple island) or a descriptive noun[noclue about the correct terms] (maple X, maple weapons).

Why is LaTale called LaTale? What about World of Warcraft? Luna? Runescape?

Why's your name Francis? Are you named after a prince or something? Who named the prince, and why?

CAN'T GET ANY MORE BASIC THAN THIS

i believe he was looking for creative ways the dev team arrived at the name not the serious "thats its name cause thats what they named it" response

i believe this type of question would better fit in the funhouse

La tale = the tale as in the tail of "X"

World of Warcraft is a world and they all make war hence WoW

Runescapes pomegranate

Luna is the same as maple i will give you that.

and hes named Francis because he parents got pineappleing drunk one night had some pineappleed up sex and then they where like whats a name that our new son will get a heaps of pomegranate for.

in fact i think this sums it up

I miss the old beginning days where everything is mostly mushies, pigs, and slimes -- probably how maplestory started with those monsters...? Now it's nothing but skeletons, dragons, and demons now o.o...

The original lore of Maple speaks of a giant tree at the center of Victoria Island, some kind of world tree deal. They seem to have dropped that idea though.
