The Best Superduper app you've ever seen. The One'that'beats'em'all.

While the following link isn't necessarily names for software, it may help you decide:

Why not just pick a name that's most relevant to what the software does?
(that no-one else has beaten you to of course)

When I wrote a button-bar applet for my Fluxbox desktop, I originally wanted to call it Cinderella (from the character Buttons in the pantomime). But someone told me there was already a program of that name. So I called it Barbarella.

Why limit yourself to a name? Why not a poem*?

*Paraphrasing an old Robotman strip.

Perhaps this poem?

(Sorry. I couldn't resist. Also, one of my favorites, along with this one.)

I sympathise, sometimes the hardest thing about a program is finding a name. (Though in my case, that usually has to queue behind making the squiggling thing work.

)

I once used a molecular modelling program called Yet Another Molecular Modelling Program (YAMMP).

Two Tolkienesque suggestions from me: Minas Is Not Awful Software, Tirith Is Really Interesting To beHold.

I'll get my coat.

Oh sure it is difficult. But at least you knew what your program did. The OP did not even give that information. I wonder BTW how long it will before an OP does not only skip the necessary information, but
also fails to ask a question.
