I am totally open for the concept (although I wouldn't like to be the one answering everything!). Just a minor suggestion: lets pick something that is easier to spell ;) We Dutchies might be used to complicated French spelling, but I'm afraid not everyone is as lucky to have been tortured with that language in high school :) (no offence!) Also a castle gives me mostly the feeling of something you're trying to defend from outsiders. But the name is not the important issue of course, and I'm happy to let us give the concept a shot.
