Hi,
So 73 mails later, I've renamed it to Spectacle. I'm not changing it again.
I am actually working on a small Webcam/Photobooth app that'll be
called Selfie, hence this.

Selfie suggests that it would use a webcam to take a picture. A misleading name
is not a good name IMHO.

I feel like Selfie is more likely to create an emotional
bond
Though Generic names are more relatable and better for users and program
itself. But the generic name must IMHO should result in self identifying
product. Product branding is very important to define a success of a product.

Ladies and gentlemen, I'll take a decision on this in the next couple
of days. As it stands now, Pixie is a universal favourite but we can't

Kapture seems to have the most number of votes, so if nothing changes
I'll go with that.

Boudhayan,
I agree that renaming kscreengenie to kscreenshot would be a nightmare
