What's in a name

I voted for Muton... not sure I like Luna much either, mostly for the same reasons pljones said (Creamwares's Luna cards).
However, as a French speaker, I see Muton and immediately think "mouton" (sheep, in French).
But I don't mind it, and definitely prefer Muton over Apollo. The latter, for me, conjures more images of the NASA space program than of the Greek god of music.

I'm not sure I like any of the names. Muton reminds me of Mutron, and the others just don't strike me as names of sequencers.
Muton's the best of that bunch though, and Muton/mouton is pretty funny.
How about othe mu words, like muso, muse, musist, mutator?
I also don't mind simply calling it Mutools. (actually think that's a pretty good one)

I also like the idea of keeping "mu" as a prefix, for the sake of consisency and to reflect the products origins if nothing else. So here are some more suggestions to throw into the pot:
MUTOOT
MUTUNE
MUZIK
MUZIC
Or if the host is going to be the first in a line of products why not call the host something like MUTOOLBOX and give the plugins names like MUHAMMER, MUSAW etc.
Just a thought!
Calum

Since it's your product, Jo, and we are all just trying to be helpful to an old friend, then it would be your decision as to the final name and the winner; because it is your livelihood at stake here.muzycian wrote:I'm not sure how to practically organize a competition about this.
How would you select "the winner"?
The one who launched the winning name?
But then everyone needs to launch a new name so to make chance, right?
Would that work?
That being said and settled, I have to say there are some good names mentioned here so far. I, personally, agreeing with Shamann, like MuTools, and Jo's MuTracks/MuTraxx. And, too, Luna is starting to grow on me also.
So if the contest is on, if it's good for you Jo, and it's definitely your call, then, "Let the name calling begin!!! Hey, hey, hey, hey, no hair pulling or eyegouging over this, hey that's enough of that over there!!!!"
I'm thinking, I'm thinking.
I'm throwing these into the hat: LunaModule - LunarModule - Music Module.

If someone comes up with a winning name, he'll surely get a lifetime user license for the top version!

Okay, thought about it overnight and:
MuzeNouveau, MuzeNuvo, MuzeNuveau Nuvo-Muze, Nouveau Muze, Muze
MuzeNewVeau, NewMuze, MuzeDeVieux
MuzoNuvo, MuzoNouveau,
NeoMuze - iffy on this one - sounds weird.
Anyway, that's all I've got right now, Jo.
I'll think about it while at work today.
