I think Dave's comments are useful but I would also say you can take two main tacts. One is to have a meaningful name by combining words that have the kinds of meaning you want...friends, groups, relationships, clans. The other is to go for something short with as little meaning as possible across as many cultures as you can query. This is supposed to be an international project and framework so it should be named with international branding in mind. One other consideration is that the .org be available which I'm not sure of for the members of the aforementioned list.
If it were me naming this thing, I'd bite the bullet, pick a few names I liked that met the criteria I cared about and then have a vote. I understand the impetus to get all of our opinions but everyone thinks differently about names and some don't care at all.(a rose is a rose...etc.) Sorry if I'm derailing here...just thought a list of 156 names was a bit hard to work from.
