Riffing on the work done to name Perl6, here are the name criteria I
propose:

Required:

   1. No confusion with another protocol or major software project
   2. no existing registered trademarks in related classes
   3. Less than 1M results in Google
   4. Short (<=6 chars)
   5. Descriptive of protocol (this criteria is subjective)

Desirable:

   1. Straightforward to pronounce
   2. Easy to spell
   3. Easy to read
