NTPerl (for New Technology Perl), but since Perl will keep going on, its better to numbering it like in the past and into the future: Perl 4, Perl 5, Perl 6, Perl 7, Perl 8, ... simple and easy!
Beside this, now we discuss an alternate name for Perl 6. Will we (or our descendants) want to have same discussions for Perl 7, Perl 8, ...?
Additionally, Perl never needed marketing and never will need it. Also, putting some effort or resources into marketing, requires sustainability. Will the Perl community keep with this?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
