It is possible to post a āsingle choiceā poll or a āmultiple choiceā poll.
Would a multiple-choice poll be better for producing a consensus result that nobody hates?
maybe I should wait to see the poll before worrying about it

Bear in mind that I lifted this from Cory Doctorow (Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom), so I donāt know legally, or whether Cory would be okay with it.
@honeybunches, is there any way of checking with Cory or should we just assume itās a non-starter?

Considering there are companies named after things in JRR Tolkienās works, I think legally it would be fine. I can send an email asking for his blessing, though!

Cory didnāt invent the word. Anyway, a word canāt really be copyrighted. Trademarked, perhaps, but thatās a whole 'nother thing.

Just a quick note to thank everyone for their thoughtful suggestions.
I donāt want to put my thumb on the scale. Iāll just vote with everyone else.
Iām not sure where else to put this, but this experience has reminded me a bit of this:
I mean that in the best possible way, I assure you.

I think Iāve got a way to start processing all these suggestions, but it aināt pretty. I think I need to be able to make a wiki to do it. Is there a way to do that, @LockeCJ?
I just made the first post a wiki. Does that help?

So does that mean anyone can edit?
Can you make any comment a wiki or just the first one?

Any one, apparently.
That probably answers both questions. Iāve just got a toggle, I donāt see any obvious way to make it a wiki that a restricted group can edit, but that might be contradictory on its face.

Another good name might be "Animal Farm."

I donāt need to restrict the group, just confirming that everyone will have access and be able to fill stuff in. Iām going to lay out the plan here, and then lay out the list in the next comment. If you can make the list a wiki, thatād be great.
Okay then, hereās my plan: Iāve broken the list of suggestions above in to two parts - verified (ones that were presented as a domain name, and which I have verified are available) and others that were presented as general ideas, suggestions, or perhaps just as a joke, but I donāt want to assume so everything that got 5 likes or more above has made it to one of these two lists.
So hereās what Iād like you all to do; read through both lists. If you suggested one of the names on this list that is NOT in domain formatted and verified as available, then figure out how to put it in domain verified format, and then verify that it is available by checking on GoDaddy or similar domain registrar. The list comment is a wiki so go ahead and edit it yourself. Do NOT post your edit of the name/domain in a reply, please. Trying to keep this tidy. 
If you have a domain on this list that is verified, you may leave a comment next to it with some explanation of it (i.e. āHMS stands for happy mutant spaceā) or point out that other TLDs of the same name might be available (i.e. .net/.org/.space). Please keep any comment on the same line though so we can keep this list tight.
Iāll leave this process open for a few days. If anyone is suddenly hit by new inspiration because of something they saw on this list (or because they had a really productive shower this morning) then you may add it to the list, but again only if it is in domain format and verified to be available.
At the end of this first pass, we should have a list of only actual domain names that are available. From there we will proceed to a first elimination round that will allow people to vote for multiple names, with the lowest ranked 50% being removed. We will then move to second elimination and final voting.
Make sense? Questions about process? If Iāve left your suggestion off, please forgive me. This has been a hard thread to try to consolidate. Add anything I missed to the list.
