Tell you frankly, HoneyPenny name has not been well received by people.  :)

Let's get new suitable name for project!  (Announce: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=577267.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=577267.0))


Main points of this project, that can be refered in name:
1. Of course privacy. Anonymity and unlinkability (even more then CryptoNote), etc. (twistedpenny would be nice, but you don't like pennies  ;) )
2. Fair project start/run, without cheats.
3. Long term development

But the name does not necessarily have to refer to these points, do not need to hung on them. It could be neutral word, or nonexistent word.


I'll pay 200 coins to winner, not a big value of course, it just a symbolic tribute to a person who suggested a good name. And will put "thankyou" words to project title page.
As well, if there are some designers - please feel free to post names together with design concepts. This could be paid more generously or lead to long term work.

NOTICE:
1. WE WON'T CHOOSE NAME ENDING WITH *COIN.
2. Befor suggest - please spend few seconds to check is there are no buisnes already exists with this name and if it possible to by suitable domain name.
3. It obviously should be countable, you know.

Thanks in advance!
We'll go back to development and will implement today alias command line interface, to check out if command:
"transfer 1 @zoidberg 100"
works ok now.

MoneyPenny!

Getting carried away

NetNote.

You asked names with "coin" to be excluded but you yourself proposed 2 names with "pennies". Other people proposed names with "note". Are you trying to make a new standart for this cryptonote technology? If so, shouldn't we first choose the standart before the name? Like coins/pennies/cents/$/bits/bytes ?

If not, keeping the coin thing looks nice to me. That's why I proposed Shadowcoin or Nightcoin in the first place. You can also choose a name without any suffix, but that's gonna be more personal and complicated. Then I think you'd be the only one able to do it. Btw, maybe Shadowcoin already exists, but there are also 2 Bytecoins or 2 Pandas right?

You also must be more clear if you want to promote this as a coin or as a project? the name should depend on it. Your site, which looks very pro, seems to promote your technology rather than your coin.

Despite beeing the first to use cryptonote, bytecoin chose the parallel with bitcoin. Maybe you could choose a parallel with another popular coin : dogecoin !
Like DarkShibes ? Doge has tons of coins, only POW and the community is very generous (crowdfunding?). Turn it dark and what do you have? Maybe your coin, but you will definitly have to promote it more like a real one! That's what all these donations are all about, right?  8)

DarkDoge? DDOGE? DRKDOGE lolololololol

finafe = Financial Freedom

Tell you frankly, HoneyPenny name has not been well received by people

but i think it is ok

what's interesting is the critics of honeypenny name are  not proposing any other name. they are now invested in Monero and bytecoin.
this coin needs a good name, but not something gimmicky. dogecoin is doing well but that is a fluke.

this is very good technology. a good name  and technology will carry it. community participation will carry it. Monero has some advantages but can be overcome.

nightcoin/bitnote are my two favorites.

i like note as no other coin has it.

nightnote?

I think that we need a big name for such an innovative cryptocurrency.

+ No *Coin because it reminds me of Bitcoin clones
+ Bit* because of the same reason
+ No Byte* because it reminds people of 2 ByteCoin which is not a good idea
+ No *Penny because it implies something small
+ No Night or Dark or Shadow because this currency can be used in daily lives, not just in shady transactions
+ No Net* because we already have 2 NetCoin

The beauty of the underlying technology is

+ privacy (better than Bitcoin). It brings people more freedom
+ fair launch is about liberty too. No one is forced to do bad things. That's why every people in the world is seeking for freedom. Freedom means better life
+ long term development? I think this coin is built to last. It is a visionary cryptocurrency. Should we take a look at Statue of Liberty in the US. It was designed a French. France is a kingdom of liberty. Vladimir Nabokov published his masterpiece Lolita there. Without France, our people will never ever have a chance to read this masterpiece. People who believes in liberty in France also brings us an extremely controversial masterpiece at that time. I believe freedom will bring us a better life, better world which Statue of Liberty conveys in the physical world. Should this coin convey the same message in this cyberworld?

I suggest that this coin should imply the beauty of liberty and freedom. I like something with "Note" because it reminds people of bank note or cash. That's why I suggest

my suggestion is

SafeStock
or
SafetyStock(s)

invokes security trust and long term effort.

Thanks for your consideration.

how about solomonstones, using tact and intellect to circumvent if not take down the conglomerate monolithic banking industry.

IncogNote

Thank you for this post, libertynote may be sound to loud(better to be modest).
About France - it is coincidence, but i've wrote few words about JJ Rousseau's Social Contract in announce thread  :)
Are you French?

E-notes
NetNote

NightNote
NightCoin

these when read out loud sound well. You want something that is appealing and obvious of what it is. The goal is to attract the General public, not just galvanize the already initiated in crypto currency. Regular joe-shmoe I think might prefer the first 2.

eCash

MuchMoneyPenny

already taken. its a check cashing business

honeybooboo

SigmaNote [SN]/[SAM]  (Sigma is the math symbol for Summation)

Google: About 1,300,000 results (0.30 seconds)

What about PrivataCash or just Privata

Privata in Esperanto means Private in English

Here is my another suggestion

HermesNote: the note of Hermes, the God of Commerce and Traders

As you may know, Hermes is an Olympian god in Greek religion and mythology, now part of global culture symbol.

Why I suggest his name for the coin. There are several reasons:

+ Anonymity

Hermes is known for a God with Many Faces. It reminds you of the following features of CryptoNote-based crytocurrency: "CryptoNote implements the ring signature technology which allows you to sign a message on behalf of a group". In CryptoNote-based transaction, an user can be anyone in a set of users. He has many faces. Therefore, you never know who actually is who.

+ Transactions are untraceable

Hermes is known as trader protector, or god of commerce, trading. He plays a role of mediator between the worlds of the visible and invisible. It implies that Hermes's money transaction can be visible and invisible at the same time. Hermes will protect people who uses this currency. Therefore, his name makes a lot of sense

+ Fairness

God doesn't say lies. Hermes is the builder. He brings enrichment to people, not for himself.

+ This cryptocurrency is built to last

The cash of God will never cease to exist

I suggest SecureBits or something similar.

For me, Security is above all what I'm looking for.

Secure in my privacy : anonymity is a must
Secure in my transactions : transaction fidelity is provable
Secure in my trust : distributed participation that precludes centralization of control

With the above platform, what am I not safeguarded against?  Sure, market demand may drive the value of the above currency to zero, but that has no bearing on the fact the infrastructure is worthy of use; is Secured.

The choice of the word bits isn't necessarily as copy-cat as it might sound either.  A bit is intrinsically a piece of something.  They can be added to together or broken down further.  A bit has been commonly used as a currency valuing term in various places across the world and is already a part of many people's lexicon.  Obviously there is the technical usage in the computer world.  I think in the end it works on lots of levels and can be pretty accessible to a wide audience be they lay or technical.

I know liberty was mentioned earlier, but I think liberty is only truly held after it has been secured and true liberty is simply the guarantee of being able to succeed or fail without undue external pressure.  That works on the market side of this coin, but I really don't like that meaning associated with the infrastructure.  It could just be me, but I would rather have a term that feels more like a an obstacle overcome, beaten and well, secured, than one that means I now have the opportunity to fight the battle to the best of my ability.  I don't think Liberty is as much achieved as it is lived in.

(edit: I kinda like the sound of SecureBlox too.  A Blox/Block is made of 'something', it has a perceived value, it is still associable with the tangible world yet isn't necessarily defined)

*coin is better

i think the name is ok

I like HoneyPenny

As the coins are fungible (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fungibility) I would like the name to reflrect that.

I started playing with an anagrams creator and found this anagram of fungible: Bionic Elf Guns (BEG). Somehow I get the feeling this name will not catch on...

So why not keep it simple: Change

The coins (down to the smallest unit) are interchangeable just like the change in your pocket. That right there is the strength of this coin (and all CryptoNote implementations for that matter). On the other hand it means adapting to the environment. We see Bitcoin becoming more and more mainstream, and with that becoming more regulated as well. The CryptoNote implementations are the natural product of this. The desire of community to stick to the principles of anonymity, decentralization and freedom of speech are reinforced in the protocol.

Of course variations are possible, although I don't like the standard adjectives;
- ChangeNote
- ChangeCoin

 HoneyHoneycoin sounds gread  isn't it ?

newpenny

Thank you for suggestions.
We still don't have a winner, but we have a new trend - to get name ending with "Berry".
Perfect name  would be a HashBerry, but unexpectedly this name used as some kind of cannabis.
May be some variants based on Berry will be nice.

DawnNote

This coin is at the beginning of a totally different technology. (Note)

Will be a new dawn. (Dawn)

I agree with avoiding 'hash'.

Haven't seen any I love you yet, but I will jump in if I do.

MineBerry


DawnBerry

CryptoBerry

NoteBerry


:)

CryptoBerry seems to be less known than NoteBerry (according to Google)

CryptBerry

Is it sounds good for native speakers?

cryptberry sounds like it grows on gravestones and graveyards

Cryptomity

IncognitoCoin

UndercoverCoin

Yeah , I know I am really bad at giving names .  ;D

mel (root sweet/honey)

How about money is the international language of commerce.

so.

Lang

how much do what for that skateboard. i will take 5 Langs

2 hotdogs for 2 Langs

I think you should keep HoneyPenny. The only name with the gravitas to replace it would be HonnierPenny.

;)

HornyPennis ?  ;D

We already have almost this name :)

this seems to be the best name i've seen so far.

Pecuniam - Latin for wealth, money, property, fund, etc...

or

Mellarius - Latin adjective for honey or honeyed

or

Mella Nummus - Latin for Honey Currency (also coin, money, etc.)

How about

Cento
Centa
Cent

Denari

Auro
Auri

AuroBit   (goldbit)
AuriBit

AuRa   Golden Ra

dCash

d as in digital, decentralised, decouple etc, and evolution from cliche egold, icoin  

or lucrum/lucra

From Proto-Indo-European *lau (“profit, gain”).  (lotra, “booty”), German Lohn (“reward, wages”), Gothic [script?] (launs) [script?], Greek απoλαύσετε (apoláfsete, “to enjoy”).

Tritium

Tritium (/ˈtrɪtiəm/ or /ˈtrɪʃiəm/; symbol T or 3H, also known as hydrogen-3) is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen. The nucleus of tritium (sometimes called a triton) contains one proton and two neutrons, whereas the nucleus of protium (by far the most abundant hydrogen isotope) contains one proton and no neutrons. Naturally occurring tritium is extremely rare on Earth, where trace amounts are formed by the interaction of the atmosphere with cosmic rays. The name of this isotope is formed from the Greek word "tritos" meaning "third".

Tri represents the main three goals of the project:  Privacy, Anonymity and Unlinkability

And it just sounds damn cool

Lets just call it nameless coin / namelessness note or something in that fashion. It indicates anonymity and that this is a no name coin :)

I thought "Electrum" but apparently it's the name of a bitcoin wallet app. The name isn't taken yet for a coin, though.

Electrum very good name

other:

etritium

liberté ?

Keeping with the CryptoNote / CryptoNight names, CryptoCash sounds good.


MellaNote

Ferrochrome

Tumbaga

Glucydur

Duralumin

VirtualCash or VCASH

BitCash or BCASH

AnonBit or ABIT

Yes, for some reason I like that name... or nameless name.

this is it!! really bright idea!

I think
1. pretiavo = i am making this up. But prefix of Latin word for value. Suffix latin word for portion.

2. Pretium= of value

Nameless is good as a description but not for name of co8n. Worse than honeypenny.  A lot worse. I actually don't mind honeypenny but it would not be a good name for a coin either

Agree on both counts. I assume everyone realizes that when I said I liked that name, it was simply because of my member name.

Honeypenny reminds me of James Bond's Moneypenny, so it's a pretty bad name... unless a coin is going for a Bond theme. But besides the obvious anonymous/incognito/privacy coin, blah blah, not sure what to suggest.

I think there have been many good suggestions.
please look over them. chose one and get the website. we do not want cybersquaters.

I vote

1. pretium
2. pretiavo


strong name. rolls of the tongue. dominant sounding. eloquent. easy to pronounce.
 

I think it should be something simple and business like...credible for the masses

1. cryptoseal : CS

2. securenote : SEN

3. cryptogiro : GIRO

4. Unit : UNIT

5. cryptoberry : CBY

6. diginote :DNT

7. Transfer Note : TNT
