I like the actual name : D, but there is some issues with it.
D is just to small to be able to do a search on it on internet, a lot of search engine just can't index correctly something to small, and I think it's just normal.

Sorry I didn't see it.

But I am not really agree to say it's too late, it just depend on how much we estimate the interest compared to the difficulty to do it. How many years it will take to be able to do a search on D that isn't linked to the code? Like a job search, or anything else?
Maybe it's not necessary to change it in tools, but only on web sites?
Why dlang.org and not d.org?

I think that a name change will affect the speed of the community grow now, because the effect will be larger at the beginning.

I am french and D match really often with d' that is a prefix word.
most likely d.org is already taken.

You might succeed with d.io or d.me or some other variation, but i doubt it.
just google dlang.  It's smart enough to find what you want.
