Title: Hardware wallet name Post by: slush on November 05, 2012, 02:00:37 PM Hi,
few moments ago I posted announcement of Bitcoin hardware wallet project, which we're working on (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=122438.msg1317706). At this stage, we have only internal codename for the project, but we're looking for business name for the final product. We'll be very pleased if the community help us to find some catchy and unique name for the product. For that reason, I'm offering 1BTC bounty to whoever who post the name which we then use for our hardware wallet. Unless it will have some hidden sense, please do *not* suggest names containing "bit", "coin", "key" or so. By participating in this bounty, you agree that you give up the copyright and any other rights related to the name. Also, to make this thread sane, please suggest maximum three names per post and up to three posts per user.

Maximum three suggestions per post and maximum three posts per user. Title: Re: [BOUNTY] 1BTC for hardware wallet name Post by: Akka on November 05, 2012, 02:22:02 PM 1. SERF --> Secure Easy Reliable Fast
2. "Long Pocket" if that name is not protected. My Personal favourite I can really good Imagine saying something like "I'm going to pay this from my long Pocket" while getting a small device with a slush logo on it from my (actual) pocket. 3.

I thought the Third was Key Quote from: slush "bit", "coin", "key" or so The point is that best product names are generally unrelated to the purpose. I had similar bounty for overlay bitcoin network protocol known as Stratum today. There were proposals like "OverNet" or so, but Stratum was clean winner. It is unrelated to "protocol", "network", "bitcoin" or "client", but it still reminds some layer and sounds a bit esoteric. I believe that I'll also find some great name for the wallet as well as "I" found Stratum.

I'm not sure if we can use that name because of trademark... Well, all good names are already taken, eg. Česká zbrojovka.So maybe: Plzeňská zbrojovka? CZ has a good name recognition in the USA for their side-arms. So just maybe "Zbroyovka"? This way the name will be pronounced reasonably correctly by Anglophones. Misspelling of "j" as "y" should give you a reasonable trademark defense in the Czech Republic, no?

Tesaurox, Tesaubox, Tesaunox. They are all mixtures of the Greek 'Thesauros'=treasure house, the Spanish 'Tesoro'=treasure coming from the same source, and the English word 'Box'. The last one I created because it has a similar sound like 'Knox' from 'Fort Knox' for all those which are more familiar with modern than ancient history. Have fun when picking your name!

it's funny because it's kinda pronounced like "wallet" and you put it in your pocket, so it talks to you: "pocket it!"

Do we need to try to find something that plays along with name Slush or something that relates to hardware wallet technology or completely unrelated name such as yellowpants?Icepop or something along those lines will be cool too.

Title: Re: [BOUNTY] 1BTC for hardware wallet name Post by: caffeinewriter on November 12, 2012, 02:09:56 AM bitlockr Hi, few moments ago I posted announcement of Bitcoin hardware wallet project, which we're working on (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=122438.msg1317706). At this stage, we have only internal codename for the project, but we're looking for business name for the final product. We'll be very pleased if the community help us to find some catchy and unique name for the product. For that reason, I'm offering 1BTC bounty to whoever who post the name which we then use for our hardware wallet. Unless it will have some hidden sense, please do *not* suggest names containing "bit", "coin", "key" or so. By participating in this bounty, you agree that you give up the copyright and any other rights related to the name. Also, to make this thread sane, please suggest maximum three names per post and up to three posts per user. Also, it may have been suggested already.

Some of us might want to know how close we were If so, that probably wouldn't work - Disney has an EU trademark for "piglet" that they have filed for every category under the sun: Code: Nice class number: 3 Here's mine, unsubmitted before because it seems more like a linux release name, but completely trademark-free, and you are able to build a brand without previous meaning associations (like how amazon.com has nothing to do with rivers, and few monsters are at monster.com): "Brookesia" btw: This is what a member of the genus brookesia looks like if you need the name to inspire iconography: http://news.bbcimg.co.uk/media/images/58499000/jpg/_58499388_tiny_chameleons_photo2_brookesia_micra_juvenile_on_finger_frank_glaw.jpg Specific species in this genus have names like "brookesia minima", "brookesia micra", "brookesia bonsi", if you want to borrow them for product names under a company name.

You would think "Phoenix" would be a word you could use, but it didn't fly, and neither did "Firebird", and then even "Firefox" took licensing agreements because a EU trademark turned up later. The Diamond "Viper" video card name had to be licensed from a car alarm company. An EU or US name has a trademark infringement if it can be put in a category (numbered above) where there is a previous trade use.Btw I don't wee "Bitcoin hardware wallets" in the list ;-). "Popsicle" is a nice name, but also happens to be a trademark of a large company http://www.unileverusa.com/brands-in-action/detail/Popsicle-/296139/ - they will likely defend it's use to prevent it from becoming generic like many people think it is. In the UK, this is an "ice lolly". "Oink" sounds like a search engine.

A EU or US name has a trademark infringement if it can be put in a category (numbered above) where there is a previous trade use.

Disney does business in electronic gadgets, and they have a trademark in that business category. http://i.t.com.com/i/lumiere/2006/11/16/32133409-320-0-24799-20061116_130100-320x240.jpghttp://site.accessorygeeks.com/yswimages/apple-iphone-piglet-plastic-cas.jpg Quote Btw Honda Firebird is also motorbike and Dodge Viper is a car. I'm not affraid that Disney will go over us with USB gadget (as far as we won't misuse Disney's piglet images). Viper the car is in a different category than computer peripherals, but Viper the car alarm was found to be in the same electronics category as a video card. This is an example of how different products will be found to occupy the same trademark category. Firebird the vehicle is a different product class than software, so using this name for something completely different would be fine if there was no trademark in the other area. Firebird also ended up being the same name as database software though, so the name was already taken in the same category. Thunderbird for an email reader doesn't infringe on Thunderbird the car. Firefox FAQ: Why did you choose Firebird in the first place? With the assistance of attorneys we assessed other uses before selecting Firebird and did not consider these uses to be in the same domain as our web browser. It is very difficult to come up with a good name that is not also used by some other company or project, so choosing and verifying the availability of a name is a complicated process that involves many difficult judgment calls. If you have a small project, likely a large monolithic corporation won't come after you. That is, unless they are part of a large copyright and trademark cartel that enforces the status quo of media consumption and international limitation of free commerce, with lots of lawyers, and they don't like what you are doing.

Tresor / Trezor Do you like it? Which version do you like more? Do you have any association with the brand name? Please also write down what's your native language, because your associations may depend on it. The brand name shoud associate security, reliability, something safe, not easy to break, strongness, power. It can also associate money, treasure, things of high value or lock, key, chain. It should feel strong, safe and reliable, heavy, secure. Not funny, not light, not portable. It should differentiate from other bitcoin related brand names (no “bit”). Title: Re: [BOUNTY] 1BTC for hardware wallet name Post by: btchip on January 06, 2013, 10:14:04 PM Tresor makes me immediately think about http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRESOR - perhaps just because I'm a crypto freak though ;D
Trezor is better, imho. Title: Re: [BOUNTY] 1BTC for hardware wallet name Post by: Mushroomized on January 07, 2013, 12:48:12 AM I have another two proposals: Tresor / Trezor Do you like it?

What about Bitcoin Savings and Trust? Oh wait... ::) Title: Re: Hardware wallet name Post by: slush on January 07, 2013, 08:09:46 AM Why cell phone? Any association with Motorola Razr?
Title: Re: Hardware wallet name Post by: Mushroomized on January 07, 2013, 04:29:49 PM Yeah, anything with a Z like razr or trezr or whatever just seems cheap. It might just be the flood of american products spelled this way though, and Tresor sounds too close to tremor in my opinion.
