While picking a name, make sure to pick a cute mascot, design a boot loader graphic, create an online community, ponder about destroying Microsoft before committing a single line of code to your repository. I'm sorry, I really don't mean to be personal but if I had a nickel every time I read about people creating their new awesome operating system and having it never materialize, I'd have some snacks right now. Like others said, write a first prototype, create a rough draft of most subsystems and then make this post. You'll earn a lot more respect.
