Bitcoin, its a cryptocurrency and most people know what it is all about by now. Now I was wondering the following, if you could redo bitcoin, how would u have named it?
Do u think the name affects the globalization and growth? Do u agree bitcoin (bit) sounds ''geeky''? I am interested in seeing some other comments on this.

Personally I think the name is simple and smart. I do think it has to be globally reasonable (unlike ex; doge), and geeky or not, bitcoin makes sense because its an electronic currency.

CryptoCarmen is best choice.

 Cheesy Yes, the name is so well conceived.
I would have named it the InternetCoin or the BankFearCoin...

The name bitcoin is good. If given a choice, I might have named it e-coin.
There are so many alts in place, people can just give their preferred name to an alt.  Grin

I wonder whether the smallest unit was named Satoshi when bitcoin started, or the name was proposed later as a tribute to Satoshi Nakamoto.
