Title: I need a good name for my little editor
Post by: zedd151 on October 14, 2022, 03:56:11 AM

As I have had already several different editors that played on my forum name here, "z editor", "zeditor", "ZeddsEd"; and "SimpleEd", "simple editor", and probably others that have long since been forgotten, I am asking the members here to suggest a name for
my current editor project as I have run out of ideas.


So, what would you suggest might be a good name?
I will let this thread run for one month (or so), then if more than one suggestion I will pick one at random using a PRNG to choose a name from the list. The chosen name will become the name for that editor, and whomever suggested the name will be credited in the about box.  :biggrin:


On second thought if more than one member suggest the same name, that one will be the new name and the members that voted on it will be given credit for choosing the name.  :azn:

"NobodyEd" ? :biggrin:

Interesting the use of short names, but then, a Help become mandatory.

You mean for the menu bar items? If so, yes I know.

 :greensml:  I mentioned somewhere else here that I have already had editors named "z editor", "zeditor" (no space), "zedditor", "ZeddsEd", and probably a couple other variations with reference to my forum name here.  :tongue:  But yes, 'zed' is the shortest name. And much better than HSE's recommendation, "NobodyEd". Did he just call me a nobody?  :sad:      :biggrin:

"My name is Nobody"

How about like the title of this topic...

Simply "my little editor". Doesn't quite roll off the tongue though. Or even simpler than hutch's recommend is...
simply "ZE" for zedds editor.  :biggrin:  Or Ze as if were in the periodic table. Lemme make a nifty icon for it now.

After much contemplation, I have decided unilaterally to name it "my editor" - After the title of the topic where it originated. Or "me" for short. Yes, it's all about me. Me, me, me....  :tongue:
Soon to be posted by the way... (For better or for worse, I've already got other irons in the fire)  :biggrin:
