Considering the recent news/proposal from SUSE about OpenSUSE rebranding - what do you think would be some fitting names for the distro/community?

I'd suggest "Spicious Linux", but it's a 5/10 pun at best, and too similar to "specious" which means "sounds legit but isn't"; not necessarily a good look.

"Opus" borrows letters and sounds good, but speaking of sounds, it's the name of a sound codec, so maybe not a good choice.

"Abstruse" has similar problems to "specious"...

"ChameleOS" is the name of a dragon in a game.

I figure if I run through all the bad ideas here, only good ones will be left... but that might well be specious.
