“A sentinel is a person, animal, or thing that stands guard or keeps watch to detect and warn against danger or surprise.”

Sentinel is also the name of the capital of Hammerfell

  I couldn’t help but make the joke, but yeah that follows with their typical naming method. Skyrim, Oblivion, Morrowind, daggerfall. It’s usually a place

  so in other words, bethesda saw everyone accurately calling that it would be called “hammerfell” and decided it had to be changed.

    It may actually not be in Hammerfell only. There’s a chance it will have high rock too similar to TES: Daggerfall
    
    So, maybe they didn’t want to name it after one region when the game will have two regions
