(fair warning: nitpicking ahead)

The "Spectrum of Names" is a rather large one, indeed. On one side of the spectrum, there's whatever Canonical wants to call their Ubuntu releases. I didn't even know what a pangolin or vervet were before those releases. Also, anytime you have a community expecing the new release of a distro to be called "Vivid Velociraptor," you can tell it's pretty crazy.

On the other end of that spectrum, however, is Jolla. The phone, that is. It's a shame that clarification is necessary.

It's pretty hard to get more basic than a letter and number(s), or more generic than _Phone, or more uncreative than a basic acronym 4 letters and lower. But what can be more basic than calling your product the same thing as your company? Or calling the product what it pretty much is?

Call the tablet the Jolla Marlin or something, or - even better - let the community come up with stuff and let them vote on it.

And don't get all Shakespearian on me. The name itself doesn't matter to me, so long as it HAS A NAME!
