Best way to create a GTA style game?

I would like to learn unreal engine to make my first game. It is going to be a top down 3d game like 1997 Grand Theft Auto. What would the best way be to create the world?.

My first thought was of using a city building software such as ArcGIS CityEngine to block out a basic street map. The map will be a fictional city.

Does anybody have any ideas for a city name and a game name.

You could always build the game, run a beta, then ask your players what name they like? :icon_biggrin:
