I'm working on a future setting with a bit of a cyberpunk feel. People have moved out into the main belt and are living in Asteroid cities mostly. What I need to do is figure out a reasonable set of names for the sectors of the belt.

I can define a region of space by it's degrees of a circle, distance from the sun in tenths of an AU, it's height above or below the plane of the system. However I don't think that people are going to refer to everything by a string of numbers. There would be enough change that it would not be simple to just define it by who lives there.

I thought about using Astrological signs as major sector names and then dividing from there but it just doesn't sound right.

Any help would be appreciated.
