I mean, fair. Maybe not base of operations. It is small, but the other castra aren't that big. But that's neither here nor there.
I mean, considering literally every other castrum is named based on region/location... I would actually be very surprised if Corvi was just pure coincidence given Darnus was infamous as the White Raven? Just like it's no coincidence the Skulls, or crania lupis, are the brainwashed "children" of Gaius, the Black Wolf.
Castellum Velodyna = castle on the Velodyna
Castrum Abania = castle of Gyr Abania
Castrum Fluminis = (flumen) latin for river, castle on the One River
Castrum Novum = novum is latin for new, new castle
Castrum Oriens = oriens (orior) latin for east, eastern castle
Castrum Occidens = occidens (occido) latin for west, western castle
Castrum Centri = centri (centrum) latin for center, center castle
Castrum Aquilonis = (aquilo) latin for north wind, northern castle
Castrum Meridianum = latin for southern, southern castle
Castrum Marinum = latin for marine, castle of the sea
Castellum Corvi = latin for raven, castle of the Raven
