Is the official name (well the official tentative name I guess) Geronimo or is it Apache Geronimo?


To avoid any future name clashes, it is best to incorporate Apache as part of the name. That way if Sony decides to market a nifty new box named "Geronimo" then there is no confusion between Sony's version and ours. BTW, that did happen with Cocoon's name.

Also, I remember in the pre-incubation conversations some reservations
about using the name "Geronimo" in the first place.  In fact, it is a
sore spot with many Native Americans, and Geronimo was a revered warrior.
Out of respect for the Native American people, we might want to look into
a name that is not necessarily connected with such an emotional bomb as
"Geronimo".
