Why would I be upset? That makes no sense. I do, however, think that if you choose a foreign-sounding (far more to an American's ear than to that of an Englishman) you will effectively be placing yourself at a distinct disadvantage in the American "market", as it were. It's not my project. It's yours (collectively). I have ultimately no authority, but I really think you will not be doing the project a favor in terms of marketability within the USA (I can't vouch for elsewhere, because I live here). > Nicolas has done a quick poll, British people prefer Étoilé to > Resonance, may be Étoilé is not so bad. I never said it was :) I like the name, personally, but I do not think it would be generally received well by many (most?) Americans. That's not something I can really change, even though I happen to think it's lame. > I must admit, here British people == probably students hijacking "tea > room" of Nicolas' university lab ;-) Does that really matter? :) Cheers, Alex Perez
