- amelius 10y agoHow about "proton"?
- IIAOPSW 10y agoHow about compromise and call it "H+ ion"
- eximius 10y agoAcid?
- gkya 10y agoWhat about a proper, useful name that hints to the functionality? "libhttepoll" (because built on epoll)?
- kachnuv_ocasek 10y agoSooo boring. Just kidding, I'd also welcome if more projects came up with sensible names that hint at what the program/library does. It's happened way too many times to me that I saw a cool project with a generic name, and wanted to use it at a later time to make my own cool stuff. Of course, I'm then unable to look it up because the names get all mixed up, and I only rediscover it a few months later when it gets posted on HN again.
- zodPod 10y agoTHIS. What is with the stupid single noun names that mean nothing? It may be trendy but it's useless..
- nathansizemore 10y agoBummertown. This is my first open source project I've really broadcast to the world and I should have taken more time to research the name instead of just going for the first one that came into my head. Thanks for pointing that out!
