Final [BOOLBERRY] Rebrand Vote - Boolberry Confirmed as Brand!

[illodin]

iCoin - awesome but now abandoned brand.

It already exist, but the devs have abandoned it, so the community would welcome a take-over of the brand, if a suitable solution to exchanging the old iCoins to new ones is found.

I'd go with Aureum, and not because I particularly like the name. Just because I think Boolberry is one of the most ridiculous sounding names for any crypto out there.

I also question whether polls like this even make sense really. Those who own BBR and are interested in the coin are probably the only ones voting to begin with. You are basically holding an insular vote amongst a very niche group of people, where this group already owns the coin. Those you would want to vote are those who have dismissed Boolberry, either due to the name or some or factor. Which of course would be basically impossible, and is why most devs just come up with a decent name from the beginning and go with that ... not all of this endless contest/voting stuff.

When I first heard the name BoolBerry, I thought it was terrible. Also, when I first heard of Bitcoin I thought the exact same thing...

I never thought I would use the word 'Bitcoin' in a conversation, and now it happens on a fairly frequent basis. In regards to BoolBerry, it just sounds so damn ridiculous when you say it out loud, but it really does roll of the tongue nicely. I cant say that its the best name in the world, but I think its significantly better than the other name being considered. Additionally the ticker BBR, just clicks for me.

Worry about rebranding if / when all crypto becomes mainstream. Keep making the coin better and everything else will fall into place.

I disagree in prinicipal. No one is dismissing BoolBerry because of its name. If they dismiss it because of the name, they are actually just ignorant of the tech, the skill of the developer and the direction of the development and community. We are in the infant stages of BBR, so the name can be debated and changed without repercussions.

Now, we as crypto enthusiasts live a bubble to a great extent and its easy to think the every day or event or vote or delay or development is make or break, to the moon or bust.

But it's really not.

However, this is the time to have these types of discussions and debates. So that we can reinforce our community focus starting with the brand itself.

BBR has done ZERO marketing since its inception. This is all about to change.

CZ has been the ONLY core developer since its inception. This is about to change.

BBR has done no fundraising since its inception. This is about to change.

So we are literally just staring at an infant, newly born.  

So its not the brand so much as how the brand is marketed and presented to the public. The naming is a way for the community to have their voices heard. And this is important practice, because moving forward the community is going to be asked to be a lot more vocal in determining the direction of BBR - or whichever name wins the vote.

Well said, so many people jumping the gun. There saying the same thing about bitcoin now, some people have a real problem looking at things long term.

I think sticking with Boolberry but putting more focus on BBR is the best option here.

Too many people have fallen in love with the current name, but too many newcomers dismiss the coin based on its name alone - ive lost count of the number of times ive seen people "lolling" at BBR because of its branding in that hell hole that is poloniex troll box. I really dont see how that can be ignored.

Modifying the brand to simply state bbr instead of boolberry next to the current logo would be straight forward to do. Id keep everything else the same including domain name etc, just take the focus off boolberry where-ever the brand is most visible, we all usually type the name as BBR anyway.

It's memorable and the branding/logo's already in place for it are strong. If some folks want to complain or laugh at the name, that's only a good thing (especially in this early stage) as it's more advertising for the coin.
