    Is there any rhyme or reason concerning what the name of a links page is(as in what people click on to go the the links page) Traditionally it is "links", but I was wondering if there are any good reasons to name it something unique.

    I tend to use the word "resources" instead of just links - I think it makes them sounds more useful.

    It doesn't matter what you call your links page/pages. Most people call them links, resources, partner sites. If you are asking for SEO purposes it does not matter.

    Like others before me said.

    If you are keeping links there then just call this page 'links' because it is all this page do/contain.

    links is way too common

    be more creative - use a different word that somehow relates to links so people will know yet feel they are visiting something worthwhile rather than the original 'links'

    The name "Links" is lame. I like to use "Resources" or something more professional sounding.
