we need to make the name palatable to the largest economies of the world. this will facilitate acceptence. however if this is simply an experiement then frankly go back to honeypenny.

This better not just be an experiment; I've put real money into this.

How about the good old German Elektrozaster [EZR] ?
Or just short: Zazta
What does Elektrozaster mean? "Zaster" is coloquial for money, like "Electro dough" or "E-loot". it's quite funny if you are a native german speaker - not often used word but kind of fresh my favourites are zazta (even though it is close to monero) and rings zasta sound like a type of pasta that is low in carb. can cure cancer and gives you wings. Maybe I'm wrong but I think he's just making the joke that this is turning out to be a "dizaster"

I said during the weekend because that is what crypto-zoidberg told me. I have been pushing him, giving him my favorites and trying to get this settled.
He doesn't feel any of the names are perfect and really wants to get it right.
Zastar is good but I only know English.
I meant Zasta

That's my last shot as it's simple, it's memorable, and it actually sounds like a currency (as opposed to boolberry, which sounds like a flavour of pie or a clothing brand).

Numisma comes from the greek νόμισμα, but is not that easy to pronounce. I have one suggestion: Kermawhich means coin in Greek (κέρμα) and also means "a small piece" in ancient Greek Edited: There's also oβoλός, which translates to Obol (coin), which was an ancient silver coin: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obol_%28coin%29

I want to add the weight of my opinion in favour of the name Boolberry - the more I hear it, the more I like it!

Orbex. I can't get it off my mind, it just sounds too right. Boristhespider deserves credit, I think know this can work.
edit: Shame it feels so right I keep forgetting about needing the .org free. Oh well.

There's also Obolus or Obolos (same thing as Obol) and Obelisk (a small obol) if you're interested

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that I like the name Boolberry. Also people know about Boolberry now and we will have to start afresh getting the info out.

Berry for short is awesome, I don't understand why we needed to change it.
