I disagree with MG.
A star is an object that shines, and in this case shines light
on the Groovy language and ecosystem. Hence I think the name is
both professional, and since it can be directly linked to the
star in the Groovy logo I think it makes perfect sense. In
sports you also have star players and in music (and Java) you
have rock stars. That you can find examples that relates to
games on Nintendo does not make a valid point IMO. The "All
Stars" just makes it so much better - as that's what Paul,
Jochen and others are .
My few cents worth.

But seriously, all the people one-upping "Groovy Stars" -
consider whether that name really sends the right
professional message with regards to Groovy ? I am convinced
it does not.
Managers who might decide whether Groovy can be used in a
project are typically conservative and sensitive to those
things, and they do not normally follow nerd humor... (next
suggestion I see coming along the Stars-crossed-line, is to
call Paul and Jochen "Groovy All Stars")
As another example, it looks like "Pokemon Stars" on the
Nintendo Switch might become a reality:

Hi Paul,
“Groovy Champions” make people associate it with
"Java Champions"
easily. As for "Groovy Stars", it is interesting but
let me associate "Song
Stars" and "Kungfu Stars" easily... I wish other people
would not associate
as I do...
Similarly, many years ago some one suggested to
name current "Grape"
as "Groovy Baby", the latter is interesting but not
formal...
To sum up, +1 to “Groovy Champions”.
Cheers,
Daniel.Sun
