Um, if we have to pick another name please lets choose something shorter.

What about something like: Gossamer

It's fairly straight forward for those who know what it means. And those who don't know what it means (mainly out of touch people higher in management) will not want to admit their ignorance that they don't know what it means and thus not snub the project on the basis of it's name.

Geronimo was the nickname given to Goyathlay of the Bedonkohe Apache by the
Mexican government in the late 1800s. It's spanish for "Jerome". The man
was a celebrity in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, even
rode in Teddy Roosevelt's inaugural parade. He's probably not the best
representative of his time or his people (his charm is completely lost on
me--I grew up in Osceola, WI) and as far as names go, it could be a lot
worse. There's a company here in Minneapolis, for example, named
"Infinetivity".


I'd hate to have to design that logo : )

I'm sure once upon a time people were wary of running their sites on 'a
patchy server' as well.

Isn't Geronimo something you yell when you jump out of a
plane?

As I said,


Geronimo isn't too bad, though it may be tricky to get the boss to bet
the farm on it.

Though I've never jumped out of a plane before, so I really wouldn't know. :)
