It was decided that we will keep the name Boolberry.
We are going to split the bounty among all that entered. If you posted a name in this thread, please PM your address to me.Boolberry (HoneyPenny) Name Contest Winning Name gets 125 150 BBR surfer43 has added 25BBR to the bounty!! LONG STORY:I am assisting crypto_zoidberg with finding the final name for Boolberry. crypto_zoidberg picked Honeypenny before testing because the coin needed a name. Many people thought Honeypenney was a bad name so a rename contest was started. crypto_zoidberg was so busy working on the code, the renaming contest died off. He then picked a name he thought was OK, so we have Boolberry. Boolberry was disliked by most (myself included). Crypto_zoidberg wants a name that works for all and I am helping by organizing the process. I will present a few of the earlier names I like, some phrasing etc, but the final decision is crypto_zoidberg's. TL;DR:Most people dislike the new name so we are doing this before we get on an exchange. RULES1. Unique - No businesses use this name. 2. Domain name is available (at least .org) 3. Does not end with coin 4. crypto_zoidberg makes final decision

Here are a few of the submissions from the first contest that are good:

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?

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

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

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
******************************************************************
from karkkis
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

Nightcoin it should be. And I read all the propositions : all names without coin suck!
Unless you have a better idea (and it seems nobody has), you should definitely keep it.

HP/BBR is nothing but a coin (and it's more than enough). Don't get people confused

There are several other words to use instead of coin: shares, notes, bits, Here are some ideas in other languages Spanishpoco - little, bit pedacito - bit, tiny bit, chip Germanteil - part, portion, section, proportion, deal, bit münze - coin, coinage, mint Frenchpeu - bit Swahilisarafu - coin

Didn't I say a "better" idea ? After a few days, I got used to HP and now I'm used to BBR. I don't know if we should change again. It seems we can't find 2 persons or more to agree on a same name....

i would choose
AnonimoNote [ANN]
or only
Anonimo (but a lot of domains are not free with only Anonimo)
anonimo means anonymous in the language of portugese, spain and italia also english people knew what its mean. and note, its sound better than bit and stand for privacy and freedom

Common English words are not good because we cannot get the domain name. The suffix -ring is a good idea.
