I know naming is hard, but there are already other nano projects, so fuck any new ones.

By the way, do you care to name one Nano project?

Apple wants to have a word, Meta too.
Nano had a rebranding and was called Raiblocks before. While it was a quite distinct name, people wouldn't even know how to pronounce it.
I'm not overly interested in the name, I do like the attributes of "Nano, the digital money" though.
