One the things that drive me nuts is when companies come up with names which they think are meaningful but that require users to do research to figure out what it really is.

Look at the mess Intel has with their CPU names, Reaptor Lake, Alder Lake, Rocket Lake, Tiger Lake, etc.

Makes it hard to know which is the latest and greatest.   I don't even pay attention to the names and instead just look at the Model # which tells me which generation it is.

Somone said that "SlowRoll" was less desirable because of the negativeness of "slow", how about StableRoll ?

Or SteadyRoll. And then Eric Clapton has a theme song (sort of) all ready.
 
I agree that SlowRoll does not sound promising as a name. Pulsar is the other one that I like.
