Re: [Meego-handset] Naming of Community Edition - community discussion

[ronan.maclaverty]

Sorry for top posting, here is another suggestion:

Mermate, mermaid and mermade all have mer at the start, but we could just as 
easily put it at the end, and this opens another range of possibilities:

maemer
meemer
mobmer

Or looking for other languages, how about Mara (gaelic meaning "of the sea", so 
of Mer).

Ronan.


Mermaid / Mermade / Mermate sound more interesting and original than Neptune or 
Poseidon in connection to Mer.
And I don't think including Mer inside the name is any problem really, if the 
name as a whole has a self significant meaning.

You can try other languages for sea connotation also. Example:

Earenos (Earen - great sea in Quenya, OS is an obvious suffix).

Hillel.

Inside the "Mar" we find Mer . :)

Sounds cool as well. Inspired by Dawns "google argument" I did a quick google
check with the following results:

mermate: 38.500 results
meermate: 2.960 results
mermaid: 89.600.000 results, also some "brands" seem to use this as well
meermaid: 98.300 results, but there seem to be some other sites using
"meermaid" -> www.meermaid.de www.meermaid.at (not related to each other)
mermade: 136.000, again there are some existing web pages etc. using that name
meermade: 7.120, one other site is using this one


I really like this idea because of some reasons:
It is purposely ambiguous.
The logo would be quite nice imho.
The ambiguities are generally associated with something positive or good.

Even better than mermate! Softer sound, closer to mermaid and with an

Sounds like mermaid and you can even have one as logo if you wish.
Mer design traditionally had underwater references.

I think "Mermate" is pretty cool. Also the logo idea is great imho.
Why not go the whole way and call it "Mermaid"?

Mer vs. Meer is not distinct enough in my opinion and could be easily confused.
If the double 'e' needs to be kept one could think about "Meermate" or even
"Meermaid" or is the sounding still too close to "mere"?

Hi,

> Mermate

Not bad, except that, imo, it harkens to an _application_ that would run
on top of Mer (e.g., TextMate).

Also, it has a sort of Plam-ish application ring to it... Don't know why.

Lastly, it sounds pre-millennial in some regards (I remember a lot of
applications like this coming out back in the day).

My only problem with "Meer" is that is sounds/looks like the english
"mere," which means, "being nothing more nor better than."

As a joke: In thinking about how long each of these communities actually
last, how about combining Tizen and Mer int "Timer." :p

Let me add that "Meer" was a serious suggestion, meaning just "sea" in german, 
having the same pronunciation as "mehr" which just means "more". Last but not 
least it keeps the most distinguishing element of the "Meego" brand name, the 
arbitrary double e. All this may sound dadaistic, but I really like it. 
Mer/Meer make sense for me.

Re: [Meego-handset] Naming of Community Edition - community discussion

[Tim Samoff]

Hi,

Not a big fan of Open Opium... I think that using that has a possible
negative connotation can ostracize some people. (Drug names have a
tendency to sit differently with different people.)

Chive is already a "brand" in some regards (http://thechive.com/).

Imho, Cinnamon isn't bad, but...

In thinking of the "Open." suggestion (which I sort of like), how about:

Sesame

Br,
Tim

True but it's quite clear that Mer doesn't want to have any UX associated
with it.

Anyway, my proposal: Comms

Just to be clear, you are looking for a brand separate from Mer, and

I kind of like Mer as a brand, and Mer Handset has a ring to it.

I'd like to suggest a name I started using (at least on github, when
mirroring pieces of source off gitorious) the day after the
announcement: chive, or some variant of it, like chive mobile, etc.

The name is supposed to represent energy and life (chives are green,
and it can be pronounced similar to 'jive')

Plus, well, they make things tasty. ;)

[Meego-handset] Naming of Community Edition - community discussion

[Carsten Munk]

Hi all,

As you know, there has been a lot of news regarding MeeGo, introducing
the Tizen project, Mer, etc.

We (as in the steering group) like to query the community for ideas on
what to call the Community Edition in the future. Currently our splash
screens says MeeGo 1.3 Community Edition which will be increasingily
inaccurate as we're working to rebase CE on top of the Mer Core

Some limitations:
* Can't include trademarks or company names, such as MeeGo / Tizen, Nokia, etc.
* Can't include Mer within it as Mer's a core and CE is not "the" Mer
UX (nor is anything)

All suggestions welcome!
