First of all, I'm not sure that name really matters. I think most importsnt is technical side of coin, and name is just part of marketing.
Lot of good, funny or interesting names was already taken by various crapcoins. If I would need to choose word to name coin, probably I would choose popular word, which would sound crazy a bit as a coin name.

im not interested in altcoins... but lets reword the OP's question.. just for fun
if we were in 2009 and wanted to rebrand bitcoin.. what would some options be

for instance some people know there is no actual 'coin'.
a real world wallet stores bank notes but a bitcoin wallet stores keys.

so some would say rebrand it to something like

upay - to signify that YOU pay people without middlemen
keyring- the better analogy instead of 'wallet'
            so you can than duplicate your keyring instead of backing up a wallet....... it makes more analogical sense.

then the unit of measure(value) not being called the same thing as the network/protocol/software.
for instance call them satoshi's for the minimal and for what would be bitcoin becomes..  megahectsat, commonly "mehesa's"... or MHS

..
i say this so that if making an altcoin.. atleast make it have some form of easy understanding. where the buzzwords actually have some realistic meaning if you dig deep enough.. none of this pick a random name out of a hat crap and then need to spend an hour explaining it
