How do we name it?
-
I hate to say it but I do like the name. Maybe I just need more sleep :) cheers, Chris Maunder
You definitely need more sleep, Chris! Bob, as we all remember, is the name of a serial killer from the tv-series "Twin Peaks" played by, now deceased, Franka Silva. Not really an appropiate name for the CP mascot, if I must say so. I would suggest the name "Pointer", because of his pointy little head :-) Christian Skovdal Andersen

I vote for 'Bob'.
'Bob'... damn that's catchy... maybe toooo catchy... Hmmmm... somehow I think the little dotnik is expecting more of us, though. Ahh, who am I kidding. Truth is, I was just _hoping_ this might turn into a chance at a T-shirt. But who's gonna outdo 'Bob'? And besides, I think Chris has already blown this years T-shirt budget on that last six... ;P

Chris, Maybe a stupid idea, but how about 'we' (the cp-members) create a little contest where everyone can submit a name for this friendly fellow? -- Alex Marbus www.marbus.net But then again, I could be wrong.

Wouldn't it be better if we could first decide if we like the alien or not? And if not, suggest a new logo? Unless, of course, E.T. is here to stay.
You're right.. I'm sorry, but I already fell in love with the littl' fellow :D -- Alex Marbus www.marbus.net But then again, I could be wrong.

.. or a name that has the same initials CP hmm, Chris' Pet ? -- Alex Marbus www.marbus.net But then again, I could be wrong.

I think you do need some more sleep.. BOB was just a stupid idea of Microsoft, in a galaxy a long, long time ago. I think if we name it Bob, it's future is already written :( We could just call it Alex, ofcourse :rolleyes: -- Alex Marbus www.marbus.net But then again, I could be wrong.

Well, when you say "Bob" I think of a, long gone, userinterface from MS - Anders Money talks, but all mine ever says is "Goodbye!"

Well, I still like Bob. Maybe Chris's pet is named Bob....

What could be more obvious? (PP for short, of course ).

How about we call him Larry, and say he's the garbage collector from .Net? Larry: .Net Sanitation Engineer

Looks "Geeko" to me, speaking philosophically... "Aliesh," "Greenko," "Sourcie," or "Codie" could be the name. Then again, what do I care... A :rose: is a :rose: ------- Nature, to be commanded, must be obeyed. (Francis Bacon) Nature, to be apprehended, must be obeyed. (Ayn Rand)

Oh well, it seems I'm the only one who doesn't like (much) the alien:(( Not that it's bad, I just think we could find something better. Anyway, since everyone else likes it, I'm starting to like it too;) But "Bob"... tsss.

... Codie ... for some reason that one made my smile when I read it. I think it would be a perfect name for Chris - I er.... the alien. Some non-mythical t-shirts could be made up and handed out at various shows, etc. "Codie, the Code Project mascot". David

Oh yes please ! "Codie" is a great name, "Bob" is fine too. So let us decide :-) BTW: I have just learned that there where T-Shirts on the CP-Tour available. Any chance get a T-Shirt when not being on the road show ? Regards, Tom. -- Tom Wellige http://www.wellige.com

I'm not sure this is a show stopper, but Cody is a character used by Distinct, and the SIIA has an annual awards program they call the codie awards. I doubt these would be confused with the CP alien, but we should be careful. http://www.siia.net/events/awards/2001codies/enter.htm http://www.distinct.com/ And if you're into German programming: http://www.codie.com David
