Which Aberdeen was the inspiration behind the name? (I'm near the original Aberdeen in Scotland, but I know there's at least one in Australia and several in the US too).
The Scottish one! My girlfriend used to live there for half a year doing her Master's.
I also once made Glasgow (a React-clone created for educational purposes, when I was a CS teacher). So named, because it is ugly. ;-) https://www.npmjs.com/package/glasgow
I'm not sure what Edinburgh is going to be yet, but it would probably need to be rather iconic. :-)
The Northern Lights of Old Aberdeen are home sweet home to me.
The Northern Lights of Aberdeen are what I long to see.
I've been a traveller all my life, and many's a sight I've seen.
God speed the day, 'til I'm on my way, to my home in Aberdeen!

Disappointed there's no mascot with a cone.
There's also one in Hong Kong, surprisingly.
