Agree completely with Vesa. Logo is decided, name is... well... awaiting a
not of "genius" in terms of a name that is universally better than LMMS.
It's the best comparison I have, but when GAIM was faced with a similar
decision, the word "Pidgin" and purple pigeon mascot were a fantastic and
natural fit to the project (the pressure from AOL over the name similarity
to their AIM service name certainly helped press the issue).
So far there hasn't been a name that has resonated strong enough with the
team to sway a vote, so, from my perspective, recommendations welcome, but
a contest would suggest a winner, which would be better left decided as
unanimously as possible by the team, rather than a popularity vote.
