Brainstorm: fancy name for the app? #22

Since we want to put this thing in all the nodes, and "JoinMarket Web UI" feels a bit clunky, we might want to use these early days to come up with a fancy name that is short and sweet and cool and all the rest of it.

The name should be:

  • Easy to pronounce
  • Unambiguous, both in writing and when you hear it spoken (not "muun with two u's")
  • Short enough
  • Distinct
  • Related to JoinMarket or the concepts that we implement

Examples that I like from the Bitcoin and Lightning world:

  • ThunderHub
  • SatSale
  • Nodl
  • Zeus
  • Voltage

Yesterday night "Jam" popped into my head, since I've been writing "JM" a lot, and it also works because it's kind of a liquid (which is a good metaphor for what is happening on a technical level, as in "Whirlpool"). You can also think of it as "jamming" the signal that chain analysis tries to decipher.

We could also lean into the "Raspi" theme or the "orange" theme.

I also like the "Fusion" concept that came up in call 4. But we might as well make jam 😜

If you have suggestions, drop them!
