+1 from me too, both for name and Q-splash. Why not making a picture like this at every hackfest? Also, if a group of users wants to do the same, it could be proposed as splashscreen. I quote Paolo about showing people behind and around QGIS.
Artwork splashscreens could also fit - for example, a map with Q-shaped clusters of features, or with "Q" point markers, or even QGIS bakery... :) cheers!
