Hello Zcash Community,

As you all know, zec-qt-wallet is probably not the best name for a Zcash Desktop and Mobile Wallet. It was a name I picked randomly, and it has stuck with the project since it’s inception, but now it is time to rename it to something better!

I’d love to get feedback around what it’s new name should be.

- We’ll rename both the desktop wallet and the Android app. Note that the name might extend in the future to an iOS wallet and to maybe even a light wallet.
- I’m open to re-branding the Icons / Logo as well. For reference, @Shawn produced some awesome new logos here [ZecQT Wallet Android app is now available on the Google Play store! - #23 by Shawn](https://forum.zcashcommunity.com/t/zecqt-wallet-android-app-is-now-available-on-the-google-play-store/32781/23)

We’ll put the most popular names to a poll, and then hopefully pick one!

So, what should we call it?

Some ideas,

Z-Wallet

Stripes (like a Zebra)

Equid (also a Zebra reference)

Camo (for Camouflage)

Aegis (type of shield)

Palisade (defensive barrier)

Just a few off the top of my head

That’s a pretty good one and would get my vote so far from all posted ones…

or in case different names are needed for the different applications:

Z-wallet  
Z-mobile  
Z-light

How about something that doesn’t even try to be descriptive, like ‘people names’ beginning with ‘Z’ (but obviously not named after our tireless leader 😉 )

For example :-

Zac (quite like this one, it’d make the wallet a ZEC Zac)  
Zeke  
Zane  
Zackery (combination of Zec & Hackery…idk)  
Zoe  
Zephyr  
Zeta (Apparently means ‘armored battle maiden’)  
Zeva  
Zara

The criteria Daira has set forth is a little bit exacting but possibly consider some of these for

Zollars & Zents ??

Still think a Zatoshi should be a ‘Zit’, but that’s just my weird sense of humor at play. 😄

Edit: A zaddr-\>zaddr transaction could be ‘Zending Zollars & Zents’  
… ok, I’ll show myself out

“Phalanx” is, like, a cool word. Phalanx use shields, plus members are uniform & hard to identify.

So many great names! I really like `Phalanx`.  
I also like the simple `ZWallet`, because we could call the derivative wallets `ZWallet Light` or 'ZWallet Android` or something

Whats next, a poll/vote to choose from a shortlist? This is fun.

Maybe more players & suggestions first, perhaps @sonya could tweet it…
