name suggestions for possible desktop environment

Sosasees

i made a 'window list' program for my Linux computer in Godot.

my 'window list' program on the left side of the screen, lists 1 opened window
(wallpaper from Microsoft Design: Surface Laptop Go) (i put this wallpaper for myself. a publically available version of the desktop environment would come with original and/or CC-licensed wallpapers)

i have the feeling that i will make more desktop environment parts in Godot soon, so i would need a original desktop environment brand name before i would have to replace a working title everywhere. please suggest some names or discuss the suggestions i collected in the table below:

name | status | suggested by
---|---
Project Binbows | ❌ too silly: meme-based working title | me
DEGA (Desktop Environment from Godot Apps) | ❌ too silly: generic | me
Indigo | ❌ illegal: taken | me
birdland | ❓ illegal?: taken? | me
SDE (Sosasees Desktop Environment) | ❌ egocentric | DaveTheCoder
WINW (WINW is Not Windows) | ❌ confusing: too similar to WIN, an abbreviation of Windows | cybereality
binleg (binary leg) | ❌️ rude: taken | me
sevenicom | ❌ suspicious | me
longegg | ❌️ rude: taken | me
long stick | ❌️ not searchable | me
EINE (EINE is not Explorer.exe) | ⭕️ just silly enough | Megalomaniak
goatot | ⭕️ just silly enough | packrat

(please add Marktown tables support to Godot Forums)

In the previous forum software markdown implementation using some HTML in post was supported. I haven't really tried it with flarum tho. Technically original md spec does call for/claim support for html, including tables. But it would seem that flarums md implementation doesn't, at least by default:

This is a regular paragraph.

<table>
    <tr>
        <td>Foo</td>
    </tr>
</table>

This is another regular paragraph.

@cybereality there is a plugin that might be worth a try, maybe.

cybereality

WINW = Winw Is Not Windows

Megalomaniak

cybereality WINW = Winw Is Not Windows

EINE = EINE is not Explorer.exe

In Estonian 'eine' would mean meal, as in the plate full of food you eat for lunch for an example. The M in MRE(meal ready to eat) if you will, so the icon could be a plate of food

Describe what your program do or will do with a little sentence, and take the first syllabus, or the first two letters, of each word and create your prog name with that.

By the way, there is "search and replace in all files" in any descent editor (not the one provided with Godot I guess), so it shouldn't be an issue to replace names everywhere, as long as you always use the same words with the same case for all letters.

There was a markdown plug-in I tried, but it didn't work well, it was glitchy. I can look again.

goatot (add a goat mascot) ((add a goat buddy like microsoft's clippy))
if it affects your opinion, many people, including me, would absolutely use even the most garbage file manager if it comes with a friend :-)

i now found really great name suggestions, but i won't choose the final name until i make a second desktop environment part.

i am still developing the 'window list' program (now named 'taskbar' because 'window list' became an unfitting name when i added the clock and start menu button) because i have to add the settings next:

4 colorways: light, dark, light contrast, dark contrast
start menu executable path, because i want the possibility of the user choosing a different start menu app than mine

~~if you still have name suggestions, please post them, so i could get an even better name if i'm lucky.~~ i realized that the best way to implement a taskbar settings page is as a separate executable, so i already have to make the second desktop environment part (settings app) to finish the taskbar, so i already chose the finished desktop environment brand name — but i'm not ready to say the name because i don't want to unnecessarily increase the chances of another project finding and stealing the name before i could use it.
