If people find the name irritating enough that they don't want to use the project, they perhaps wouldn't be “good” users of the project anyway.
If you _really_ find the name problematical, fork it and rename it yourself. Though accept that you will be volunteering yourself for some admin and comms burden if anyone else uses your fork.
- RamblingCTO 3y agoYeah, it's not real critique unless you feel the need to fork the project!!11
- dspillett 3y agoMy main point is that choosing about a name you aren't sure how to pronounce isn't a real critique. If such a name is going to put someone off, did they care about the project in the first place or are they just looking for something to complain about? I shouldn't have muddled the waters with the fork comment. I can understand complaints about conflicting names, blatantly offensive names, and so forth, but names that could be pronounced more than one way? Nope.
