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

At the time it was "named" no one expected it to take so damn long and stray so far off the original. No lack of faith or intent to piggy-back on an established trademark. Originally it was supposed to be a new, improved and slightly incompatible version of the same language and all would be well if it worked out like that.
