Forte sounds AWESOME. Forte: GET LOUD! Love that! :D
Iceshrimp … oof. it ain’t the worst but frozen seafood ain’t exactly inspiring. Also the Sibilance-heavy junction is a little bit grating, might be a little inaccessible to people who have speech disabilities or aren’t used to the anglic lingual mishmashy hodgepodgery.
Sharkey? SHARKEY. HOLY crap. YES. SHARKEY! it’s playful, it’s bright, it’s fun, I don’t even know what it is but I wanna find out so I can USE it!
Mitra. Hmm… Huh. Okay… I could see that working. It strikes me with a cool sophisticated feel. An air of slick precision. Wonder if anyone else gets that vibe.
Lemmy is alright enough, kinda squishy but still fun. The lemming mascot motif is cute, although that tragic false factoid about lemmings all following each other off cliffs injects into the public consciousness an idea that users of lemmy might be victims of groupthink.
Mbin… dull woody sounds, reminds me of that sleep medication Ambien, but also bin like where you toss your garbage. But that doesn’t kill it. Bins are also used for storage of things you want to keep. I could see it surviving with that name.
PieFed, I don’t hate it! I appreciate the snackish pun. That could go places even if it feels a little silly.
PeerTube, its name is strongly descriptive. Could take off. Kinda hope it still could someday. No other notes.
Funkwhale. Heh. It’s just funny. Not terrible.
OwnCast could work out too
BookWyrm - the spelling of Wyrm evocative of DRAGONS covetously gathering knowledge in a treasure trove. That’s DAMN COOL.
Some of these are actually pretty dang good actually!
I don’t think anyone needs to be threatened into rebranding but informing them that a bad name might hold them back is just a statement of fact. None of us ARRANGED for these conditions. If they want to carve an ice sculpture in the middle of a volcano, pointing out to them that the environment is hostile to their project is in no way “threatening them”.
