The decision is on one sense simple: Do enough people shy away because of 
the name?
Yes = change
No = don't change

The key word is, of course, "enough". So let's start estimating and 
reasoning.

The name complaint has been recurring over the years (decades) and comes 
from different people. It is loudly brought up on average... I'd say 1-2 
times a year? Not every time does it lead to a bigger discussion. In the 
bigger discussions some 5 people agree it is a problem (regardless if it is 
1 or 2 times a year). This is in a user group of... how many active people? 
100? So that's 5%. Or are we 500 people and it's 1%?

...However, most people are silent on the matter. We have no clue how many. 
Say, there's 10 more times silent people than there are loud mouths, who 
also find the name problematic. That makes 50%-10%. 50% doesn't sound at 
all reasonable. Say it's 20%.
 
...However, this is from the TW fan club! We are not really the concern 
here. Reasonably the dislike is more problematic among not-yet-fans. OK, we 
double the estimates which makes 40%. 4/10 who dismiss it because of the 
name. I don't trust this number at all, it sounds crazily high, but I did 
reason to get to it. Feel free to correct the estimations.

Back to the original question: Is this "enought" to warrant a change? Would 
double be enough? Would a tenth of it (i.e 4/100) be enough?
