do you want me to change the name?
Edit: I'm brainstorming names on the rubymotion google group. F-ing naming, it's so annoying. I'll try and get it renamed soon.
- colanderman 13y agoIf someone told me they had a registered trademark on the name I chose for my product, I'd be a fool not to change the name. That's a huge liability.
- MartinCron 13y agoYou should change the name because "kiln" is an uncomfortable and awkward word to pronounce.
- watershawl 13y agoHow about Layer, Ply, Stratum, Flag, Stage, Platter, Plate, Lamina, Pellicle, Film, Leaf, Slice, Shive, Rasher, Eschar, or Nest?

Kiln is kind of a shitty name to begin with, so I'm sure you'll think of something better. I'd focus on how it's self-hosted, handheld, mobile, lightweight, and portable. "Phone Self Exam" is one bad idea, with the obvious non-Ada Initiative approved branding concept...
- neglected_dba 13y ago> do you want me to change the name? You're joking, right? Yes. You need to pick a name for your product that doesn't clash with a well established product in the same field. I only clicked this article because I thought Joel had gone open-source. I suspect most everyone reading this thread thought the same thing.

- jacques_chester 13y agoGoogle and whois are the minimum threshold for picking names these days. If you intend to start a business, add a trademark search to that. There's also no law against picking descriptive names. Did you develop an egg smashing simulator? Where's the harm in calling it "Egg Smash Simulator Kit" instead of "Humpty" or some other confusing bloody puntastic name?
- acchow 13y agoI think "Egg Smash Simulator Professional Deluxe 2013 Edition" has a better ring to it.

- tortilla 13y agoHow about "kilt"

- SkyMarshal 13y agoTry Anvil. Similar blacksmith-y name, nothing majorly confusing or conflicting on the first page of a google or ddg search.
