Well, less than "dead wood"...
This name was picked by someone who was at the origin of the project,
at a time he was pretty alone working on it (since then, he quit). I
personnaly don't think it's a good idea to attach a name with a
version, à la Ubuntu (I have always been totally lost with Intrepid
Jakal or Laughable Vampire, not being able to make a connection with
8.04 or 9.10).
Anyway, I think we should get rid of those useless nicknames.
Ok, ... I was just referring to the fact that Norwegian is spelled
wrong, however, its a good point regarding the nick names.

Wikipedia, about "Norwegian wood" :
"This exchange took place in a press conference in Los Angeles on 24
August 1966:
Reporter: I'd like to direct this question to messrs. Lennon and
McCartney. In a recent article, Time magazine put down pop music. And
they referred to "Day Tripper" as being about a prostitute...
Paul: Oh yeah.
Reporter: ...and "Norwegian Wood" as being about a lesbian.
Paul: Oh yeah."
