How about dorothy, since she didn't know what she was getting into?
LOL
Or toto for that matter? Or perhaps some obscure character few
would
know? Hugh, I'll rely on you for that part, you always force me to
google your references.
Tin Man somehow sounds like a good name, though I'm struggling to think
of an actual connection.
* Kinds of clowns (or names, bozo, biny, etc) - how fitting would
that
be?
Fizbo? (Anyone else watch Modern Family?)
* Fish, starting with halibut, of course.
* Roundhouse, to go with the train/conductor theme
Freight train.
* Something about a loading dock, to go with factory theme
Forklift. Used to move things around and out of a factory when they're
done, and powered by an engine.
* Coco-slug - (coco=CrOssClOud, slug = similar chunk naming to
heroku
and openshift), take off of coco-puffs, could be a whole cereal
theme....
I still like this line of thinking, but "Coco-slug" makes me think of an
infected coconut with slugs coming out of it. Katello also has a -slug
component or two. We'd talked about "CroCoBits" which sounds a little
more cereal-y and a little less infested. Plus the images are "bits".
When I ran cross-country in a former life, it was "XC". We could borrow
that here. xci = Cross-Cloud Images?
* Vaporware! (we should have used this from the beginning..)
This needs to be used somewhere.
Also: "Publicist" -- used to manage one's image. (Obviously for another
sense of the word "image".)
