Re: [eclipse.org-planning-council] Finalizing the list of Kepler+1 Names

I don't think I could live with Lovelace and think it'd lead to lots of jokes, no matter how much we said "for Ada".  We'll have to find another way to honor Ada.

I was going to suggest adding a "non-L" word to the list just to suggest it doesn't have to be strictly the next letter in the alphabet. Such as Mercury? I see there is software already called Mercury, but that seems to be the case for Luna also (and doubt either, by itself, could be Trademarked, since they are "common names").  But, don't mean to rock the boat, either, if people are happy with the L-list. (I could add Mercury to the bugzilla, if anyone agreed good to have a bit more range).

Thanks all,

I tend to think of Ada Lovelace first :)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ada_Lovelace

List so far is:
Laila
Laplace
Lok
Lorentz
Lovelace
Luna

Anyone else have suggestions / thoughts?

Perhaps it’s my age, but when I hear Lovelace, I think of Linda Lovelace[1]. Although I understand the intent, it’s not a great name IMHO. If I’m the only one, you can safely ignore the old guy.

 

Like Doug, I was secretly rooting for Luna.

I was in favour of Luna. Mind you if we all add in our fav's you'd probably end up with the original list…

[eclipse.org-planning-council] Finalizing the list of Kepler+1 Names

 

Hey esteemed planning council members, here's the final list of names after all the votes came in:

 

Ladon

Lagrange

Laika

Laila

Lambert

Laplace

Leibniz

Lenat

Leornado

Lepus

Leto

Leviathan

Liber

Lok

Lorentz

Lovelace

Luna

Luxor

Luyten

Lynx

Lyra

 

Note: I removed some that I thought were silly and/or would never be approved by Legal. Also favored page rank potential :)

 

I would like to come up with five or so to offer for voting. Here are my five:

Laila

Laplace

Lok

Lorentz

Lovelace

 

Do you have any favorites to add or don't like my suggestions? I'd like to finalize the list so we can post the poll on Sunday/Monday.

 

Let me know!
