    Ok, but... I would hope that every MB software application would try to claim generic things like that. I was hoping for something to differentiate your product.
    That's a good reply to what I said, and it makes me realize that I didn't describe the criteria very well.

    Here's an example of (in my opinion) a really great name for a product which I found in the book:

    T-Rex. That was the internal name of a server built by IBM in 2003. (The official name was eServer zSeries 990.)

    Obviously it says, "this machine is a giant powerful monster."

    Does that mean other companies couldn't also claim that their servers were powerful monsters? No, of course, they could make the same claim.

    So please let me restate the criteria. It's not that the name should claim "this product is unique." It should just emphasize desirable qualities.

    It probably goes without saying that anything that says the product will make you Teh Leetsauce (or whatever the kids are calling greatness these days) will just sound campy, 12 and trite. I kinda suggested Legion because on the surface, it isn't an obvious meme. You have to think about it a bit, then you start considering what it might mean, thus, stoking the imagination.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legion_in_popular_culture

    It is a well-known word in the English language as you can see above. And it doesn't have the hackneyed connotations that some of the obvious choices do.

    Anyway, not running a popularity contest here. Just figured I'd put in some background to go with my brief suggestion.

    I suck at names and thus my tick goes toward Legion...though it does remind me of VNV Nation.

    I've been throwing around another military term.

    Squadron
    O-Squadron {for OpenSource}

    And if you want to start getting contrived to play with the multiboxing aspect OSquadrun {like O's Quad Run}

    Well, I'll stick to my proposal : Typhon

    - Typhon is a mythological monster with hundred head

    - Typhon is the root of the word typhoon, which is a hurricane : power, destruction, ...
    (I don't know about other languages, but typhon is a synonym of hurricane in French, without an extra "o")

    - A typhon is a rather simple, natural thing, easy to set up (ok, that one is a bit far fetched, I'll admit )

    Maybe it is a bit obscure, after all Typhon is not the most famous of mythological monsters. In which case my second choice would probably be Legion.
