RE: Name YOUR decentralized social network?

I agree that Eehive and Etribe have some potential negative interpretations.

I agree that Eplanet is missing speaking to anything specific about decentralization, censorship resistance or purpose other than being the global planet or spread of E. But that simple meaning is actually inviting and quite good for people who don’t care or know the relevance of decentralization, censorship resistance and other facets of blockchains and cryptocurrency.

I agree that Etonomy is the most professional, serious and brandable/unique name thus far which doesn’t sound too much like an engineering term (e.g. Hyperdata or Exodata). I agree that many people may not make the connection to both economy and autonomy initially, so it probably isn’t the best name for the user facing domain for the masses. But it is the best name thus far for the serious side of the project.

Thus at this time unless we think of something better, I am leaning towards the blockchain is Etonomy and the user facing dApps portal is Eplanet. Analogous to how Steem is the name of the blockchain and token for the steemit.com user facing blogging dApp.

Note the Eplanet portal can say, “powered by Etonomy”. The Etonomy website can refer to the exodata concept, decentralization, censorship resistance, white papers on the technology, etc..

Again the currency would be just E.

I am reasonably satisfied with this naming choice, pending further reflection and any other feedback.

P.S. late reply not because of the holidays but I have been doing grueling twice a day runs and workouts. My liver disease is apparently much more advanced than I was facing up to the reality of. On a very strict diet now too. Apparently it will take a few months to clear out the fat from the liver and start to heal it, with a 3 year time frame for complete healing, unless there is some other complication such as cancer or viral infection.
