Why not a multilingual name?

like: Esperanto

The Esperanto CMS

cause it is used by all nations?

To learn Esperanto is like saying: I'm open to the world" (open source)

Can't.. There is prior commercial naming rights for Salsa and Chilli in Australia, if I remember correctly. Some web company out there in my travels has released packages and naming rights over products inside the web sphere.

This could be confused with http://www.osm.net/ or with OSM http://www.osmcorp.com/.

OSM is the name of this site and I think the product needs a different name to stop confusion with these two I mentioned.

To considerations from my side:

1. Wouldn't it be a great statement towards Miro from our side to completely break with the Mambo-name, just to show that we don't need it to survive, that even without any reference at all to former-Mambo, we will win the battle of the best ever CMS ? I stopped looking for a ne name sounding like Mambo anyway

2. Isn't it dangerous to suggest new names here on this public forum? What if Miro- or Foundation-spies come read all this and start registering the most popular names? Just to sabotage us?

And now, my own personal suggestion:

WHOOPY

No special reason, just sounds funny and reflects the fun we're all having using M ... oeps, our own temporarily nameless CMS

And we could call ourselves WHOOPEOPLE than  ;D

Here are my thoughts for a new name:
- Innova (Innovative)
- Muevo (Mix of Movement and evolution)
- Ritmo (To link back to a dance)
- Novera (A new era :) )
- ...

Regenerate CMS

I used that name for my small, one-person company because it stands for rebuilding old (company) websites to something new and better: a Mambo CMS driven website!

It could be used in a simular manner to reflect the new Mambo CMS: a new refreshed CMS.

Might sound stupid because it's my nickname but I just thought it might be nice to add to the discussion...

Just my 2 cents :)

Muevo sounds like Nuevo with a typo...

Mutiny is missing from that list, though I don't seriously think a name like that (which has a mostly negative meaning) would be chosen.

May I offer up a suggestion?

How about....

Swing

Swing conjures visions of carefree summer days. Its also a dance style that broke away from conventional norms of 'closed' partner to partner dancing, opening up to a more individualistic means of expression through movement. (sound familiar?)

If folks could get over the idea of being 'Swingers'....we'd have it made.

It's fun to think of new names voor Mambo!
But, is there any official request from the true devteam ( ;D ) to think of new names here?

Okay, so Swing was too close.....

"Break"   as in breakdance

or

"Freestyle"

or going off on a............ "tangent"

then again, slipping into left brain...

"Gutenberg's press"
