How about a variant of foam? xfoam? foamix? I think we can round up a
good list of name candidates between us and pick one that most are
happy with.
While celtixfire is the most politically correct name, and most
'accurate', it's an awful name from every other perspective. Our
package names won't match, it's not easy to type or say, and is prone
to various awkward abbreviations (as someone else has pointed out).
If the project is a success (and we all think it will be) then the
name will become more and more meaningless as time goes on.
It's not hard to imagine a future where it's taken off and has enough
momentum and reach as its own thing that people won't know/care about
the name origins, and instead will just wonder why such a great
project has such a silly name ;)

I have been following up the project name proposal thread and I did
not see any good name without trademark problem. I envision this
will continue to be that way. We have already started project with
CeltiXfire and why do we bother our energy to change it now? Users
probably only care when we will have our first milestone, instead
of project name. So I suggest we focus on getting our first
milestone out ASAP instead of a pretty project name, hence my
-1 to change name.
Cheers,

Hi,
All the source is is, most of the other resources for the project
are setup, and so I thought I would revisit the issue of the name
as it seemed generally undecided that last time we chatted about
it. So if there is to be any discussion about a name I guess we
first need to decide whether we want to change the name. If that
vote goes through then we can talk about name.
Myself I'm
+1
To changing the name.
