in reply to It has been suggested to rename Perl 6 in order to boost its marketing potential. Which name would you prefer?

Perl 6 should be renamed just to keep the namespace clear for Perl 5 improvements. The languages are too different both in structure and execution to be lumped together in this way. In addition to Perl++ (my favorite) and Oystr I might suggest: The above note the fact that Perl6 runs on a VM and can run on the JVM.
