Name is too similar, pick something less derivative.
- remram 3y ago
  Is there a problem with the name being similar, as long as it doesn't use the trademarked name? I understand how "open vagrant" or "vagrant reloaded" would be a violation, but I'm not sure if "vagrunt" would be, unless we think it's close enough to be confused with the original spelling?

    This is what ChatGPT said about the new name it suggested: "Vagrunt" is indeed a clever and suitable name that closely resembles "Vagrant" while changing just one character. It maintains the familiarity with the original name while also indicating a slight twist that makes it distinct for your fork of the application. Well done!

      This is what else the same source said: Given that "vagrunt" and "vagrant" sound similar and, in your hypothetical, provide the same service, there's a good chance that using "vagrunt" could raise trademark concerns.

    Yes, trademark proceedings take similarity and likelihood of confusion into account. I'm not sure Hashicorp have a trademark here, but the names are awfully close. Think of the pronunciation: I am sure in plenty of localations the words are pronounced identically, let alone very similarly.

    How about "viagrunt" ? Seems most suitable to execute "viagrunt up" ;-)

  I wonder how Terragrunt is going to manage their product name. Vagrunt is no different other than it's been "created" post license changes.

  Yes, clearly he should name his Vagrant fork something that's not as easily confused. How about Nomad? ;)

As someone who is not a direct competitor to Hashicorp, why would I use this over Vagrant? As someone who is a direct competitor to Hashicorp, why would I use this over making my own fork?

  It's Vagrunt, with a MIT licence. What's not to like? Vagrunt up
