phpwcms Support Forum

@Dexxus: in general...

but seems you (no specific person meant) are not very creative finding a better name...

Oliver

Creative is in the eye of the beholder.
You'll likely not find a new name this way...

...this CMS doesn't have enough active users to overcome the vagueness and be able to push it from two or three grains of sand into a heap (sand caastle).
Life's a beach!

what you think about



versasol

versa from versatile
and
sol from solutions

cos you can make a lot of things with phpwcms.

later wie could say tcfkap = the cms formerly known as phpwcms

Hehe Oli, sounds like a polish (Putzmittel in German).

There was one in the GDR - 3xW from Wittol

Cheers Yves,
had my coffee this morn...so adding some more to the mix

mendelssohn

guys - my 5 cents
i totally agree for the new name.

the name has to be
- cool and possibly short (calling it KOBRAMEPGGHFFS would make it even worse)
- without cliches like "design, code, php, cms" and stuff like that; they are a definitive turn off and anonymizer. A name has to be a name: my father has called me fulvio, not "thefatguythatmakessitesandrecordswetware"
- for perfect branding, it shouldn't mean anything in no language (negative examples: citroen NOVA, which in spanish is NO VA, doesn't works, or the danish mineral water PSCHITT... bad name to ask on an international table - "bring me some fresh pschitt!")

you might even say: why don't you give it a try?
i'm still thinking of it - but i'm thinking about the 5 chars consonant-vowel-consonant-vowel-consonant scheme, which is told to bring luck to industries. One example? The eastman industries, which rose to a pretty new level when changing their name into KODAK.... might have heard that name....

(curiously - another example... LENIN... same principle, different purpose)

let's try harder, guys..

Good argumentation Fulvio

Then... let's maybe use such tools as random name generators:
01. http://www.xtra-rant.com/gennames
02. http://www.rinkworks.com/namegen
03. http://www.dwheeler.com/totro.html (seems a good one)
etc. ...

02. http://www.rinkworks.com/namegen
Output Example:

• Tonard
  Ouste
  Delsay
  Nyat
  Geull
  Pheust
  Cerunuz
  Awine
  Ara
  Fafit
  Denler
  Morurn
  Besis
  Nycyl
  Equeu
  Tarld
  Vorm
  Enthsay
  Rillye
  Duath
  Kald
  Omorm
  Nelot
  Tanskelo
  Omwar

Cheers,

Great Things need great names !

Even if I see it different and find no need for new name, how about:

echo4
sprintD

Ok, Oliver will not like my code violation but these would be my favourites

http://www.anagramgenius.com/server.html

maybe that give some inspiration, too

just a few more words:

efromo
iponko
eboojo
celuz
ogresko
agaxo
jumima
kahepro
amacho
ifaba
erkil
awooco
axono
sefago
skifu
greyprint

Please!!! Don't post such waste of useless words! And please no slogan at the moment.

Think twice before posting one of your famous and recommend new names but not random lists of words.

Also - don't use well known person's names like Mendelssohn.

Oliver

I don't know if it's already in use:
Democracy

Oliver

Then... this thread seem to me to be more like a big waste of time anyhow.
Let's focus on the meat instead... the long awaited new features.

Cheers,

Yves

@Yves, maybe. But without testing I wouldn't know.

As I have seen "Democracy" here - sorry - it really seems to be wasted time.

Please stop posting new words - makes no sense in this form. I will let topic open for a while...

Thanks for everybody's try to find a new name.
