...What should it now be called? The UN mediator for the Macedonian naming dispute has just proposed in recent talks that rather than Macedonia (the country) be renamed Macedonia region in Greece should be.

Since that none of the compromises involving the country of Macedonia' name were acceptable to Greece. Only Greece is the one with a problem with the name maybe it would be easier for them to change the regions' name to avoid confusion.

Sounds a good idea to me. These are my suggestions:

1)NORTHERN GREECE - Region of Macedonia was known as that till 1988. So going back to the old name should be simple.

2)THESSALONIKI PROVINCE (Solunika) -Greeks like naming regions after cities.
