Just my two cents:
It'd be really easy to just call it Music and not worry about it any
longer haha.
I don't think we should translate the name unless we're going with Music.
Translating a branded name would kind of defeat the purpose, IMO and (as
previously pointed out) could lead to some
I'm all for just going the GNOME Direction and calling it Music. This
applies to all other apps (some are already like this, such as Files and
Terminal). It is just so much simpler for the user to see something like
Web rather than Midori (which has nothing to do with the web).
So yeah, Music
I'm for Music. I also think music is what development should center around
and leave podcasts and maybe even radio to separate apps. Podcasts because
they really need a store experience, otherwise you'd be better off just
subscribing to them in an RSS aggregator.

Noise is perceived as something negative by many (the kind of people
who are not crazy about metal or industrial), that's it AFAIK.

It's trivial to you because you know what Noise is. It's a media player,
you know it.
For people who don't, it's better if that name it is installed under in the
computer is Music Player or something like that. It's easier for most
people.

Don't we already present Noise in the OS as a music player? Doesn't the icon
have the purpose of showing the user what the app probably does?
IMO Noise relates more to music than Tempo does. Also, if we are going this
way with Noise because the name should directly show people what the app
I agree with Jaap and i'm against rename it...
Also i don't like Tempo, Noise is much better...

I also agree with Jaap. Both names are equal to me in communicational
value, so definitely not worth the effort and hassle.

I also agree that Noise is an appropriate name for the player. I feel that this
naming scheme is most relevant to the player, as opposed to Tempo or some of
the others that have been mentioned. Noise seems more generic and
straight-forward as to what the app is meant to do.

Okay, I disagree with you all then because in my language (french) there is two
way to pronounce that :
In french, and that word exists and means problems
In english, and that is really hard because there is an double voyel (no-ise)
so it's not that good for us.
I let the democracy choose, but
I understand the issue with the translation. From what I understand (as french
being my second language) the translation from Noise to french is Bruit. I'm
not sure if the application titles have been (or will be) translated, but if so
Bruit gives the same proper description of what Noise is in
I think that translating names would only make sense if the names were
like 'web browser, media player, and so on' else they are primary nouns
and so not translatable.
I think there is no gain in changing the name at this point, else then
showing project immaturity. At this point the name
Those are pretty much my thoughts as well.. I don't think renaming the app
for a third time would be productive at this point... It will probably just
lead to more confusion.

David, if we did that with Noise, it should be done with every elementary
