Anyway, the point is the background on the selection of "Red Hat" as a
name. It was a good fit for two objectives
- Support a clear logo/visual image
- Keep options open about what the named thing actually does, so that
it can evolve.
+1 here
I am all in favor for picking unique names (funny way is one of the
ways, which makes them unique), mainly because they are pretty easy to
remember. Of course, there needs to be some reasonable line, which
identifies what is easy to remember. Gabelsta... etc from my point of
view is overkill, but e.g. Winged Monkey is a great example how the
brand can work - everybody remembers it (as it was already said here).
As for names voting, which Matt mentioned: +1 for that. We already tried
that on Alchemy project and it worked well.
