KeyID
;D
BitKey is interesting; a great allegory for unlocking access to a secure space:
Keyhotee ----> BitKey
Keyhotee ID ----> BitKey ID.
I think KeyMail and KeyID are catchy:
Keyhotee ----> KeyMail
Keyhotee ID ----> KeyID
That said, my vote still runs with bit-something. There is just too much momentum/value in attaching to the bit-space.
There are a lot of great ideas here that have great merit.+5% agree with the beauty of the name!
I would hate to lose the subtle deeper meanings behind the choice of Don Quixote as a hero for whom honor and courage outweighed the inherent dangers of the quest.(https://static.squarespace.com/static/51fb043ee4b0608e46483caf/t/526f194be4b08cf7d693f949/1383012747165/Keotee%20Windmill%20Sauron.png?format=750w)

"Treat Keyhotee as a code-name" Keyhotee is a great project title, but not an optimal theme fit with the rest of the brand in order to harvest the benefits of name recognition, etc.
We have some flexibility to keep that meaning and increase clarity. Currently the protocol, the network, and the application are all called Keyhotee. We could keep Keyhotee as a name for the initial application, and name the network and protocol BitShares ID for consistency.

That's not a fair poll. You should include Keyhotee as an option too+1 Agree

I would never have associated honor and courage with Quixote, and I'm sure I'm not alone in this. I've always understood Don Quixote as a sad, silly man who couldn't tell what really mattered in life. Googling "quixotic" gives me this definition as result #1: "exceedingly idealistic; unrealistic and impractical." That's what you want to say about one of your most powerful products? :)
While I'm throwing my cents around, I'd vote against "BitKey" because people won't pronounce the "T" and it will sound like "bikky." Nothing wrong with that per se, it's just that people will be hearing a new word they don't know and it will add an un-necessary level of confusion.
Not having "bit" in the brand sets you apart. Bit is used inflationary by now.
Key-hotee = (Don) Quichotte. I love that :)

Personally , I like what it is . KEYHOTEE. So very unique. As the good ol Google. It made no sense what it meant back then.
I respectfully submit the Keyhotee moniker is inadequate and may hinder widespread adoption.

Im glad someone has raised this issue - I was about to raise this as well.
Here is a list of communication networks that are extremely popular:
-Skype
Now here is a list of communication networks that only techies have heard of:
-Bitmessage
-Torchat
Ignoring the fact that the second list require users to share hashes of public keys, there is another pattern there - successful product names are catchy, don't include techy jargon, and can often be used as a verb. I would assert that Keyhotee is NOT catchy, and is borderline jargon. Whilst you can say "Skype/Tweet me", the phrase "send me a Keyhotee" is never going to catch on.
I dont want to have to go around my family evangelizing a product with the word "Bit" in the name either - its extremely geeky, and most people are not interested in the technology, they are interested in the social experience. For a communication system to actually get any momentum, the branding is just as important as the technology.
What about something like "Privee" (pronounced like the word privy - has the connotation of information you only share with those who should have it)
In any case I think if we were to switch names it should be something that people REALLY like and a clear consensus emerges. The community seems open to considering a new name (with keyhotee being the code name during development) but it would need to be something special that captures people's imagination and everyone gravitates to it, not just "BitMail." There are big costs to making a switch, it needs to be marketed and a lot of people like keyhotee; at some point you have to stick to something. So if you don't like the name, think of something that really captures people and gets a lot of support, gets people excited, get creative, think outside the box. I don't think we should make a change if there is a large split in opinion.
I agree, I think that Keyhotee will never catch on with that name. It's quite off-putting (you really have to think about how to pronounce it -- I think that most people would pronounce the middle syllable "hot" and not be able to make the connection with Don Quixote) and I actually think of Don Quixote in a negative light as well. "Tilting at windmills" is generally a negative phrase. I haven't said anything so far because I know how nerds love their puns. (Don't stone me, I'm a nerd too!)
I think that the "can it be used as a verb" thing is important. In a perfect world, I would choose "Keyper", "Keypr", "Keepr", or something like that. It seems that all of those domain names are taken. We need some short verb that at least kinda makes sense to use with "Key". Keyfixer/Keyfixr? KeyHopper? Keydigger? KeyZapper? KeypTabs? KeypMe?

I think people would end up associating the name Keyhotee with the product Keyhotee and little else and it would not preclude it from being successful. So if people like the product, they will come to like the name. "Yahoo" doesn't have any good connotations; look up the definition.
The definitions for yahoo I found:
a rude, noisy, or violent person
a boorish, crass, or stupid person

How about this for a simple solution?
There are lots of examples where the same product is marketed under different names to reach different demographics.
Dodge and Plymouth produced the Neon and the Colt
Plymouth and Chrysler produced the Voyager
Pontiac and Ferrari did the GTO
Nissan Quest and Mercury Villager were essentially identical.
So we could release Keyhotee in many different flavors, named to gain traction in different markets:
Keyhotee 屠龙
Keyhotee Drachentöter
Keyhotee драконов
Keyhotee קוטל הדרקונים
Keyhotee δρακοντοκτόνος
Keyhotee ドラゴンスレイヤー
Keyhotee smokow
Interestingly, half the languages I checked used the same exact word: dragonslayer!

The option to leave it alone is voting for Keyhotee.
Can we have a poll option to get rid of the 'h' ? We at least dont want a "ho" in the name.
In case you havn't noticed yet the majority doesnt want to change or alter the name, you are in the "weak" blockchain fork.
So, please leave the name alone unless you have good arguments. And dont forget that keyhotee's true power will come from what it will offer to its users, this is revolulotionary, so please stop trying to treat it like a normal mail service that needs a "good" name in order to succeed. Keyhotee is doomed to SUCCED and already has the best name IMO.
Apology for poor english.

Your English is not bad at all. Just a few misspellings, no grammatical errors.
But to the point: It's actually not that simple! Currently 28 people want to change the name (given the 3 choices, none of which were all that great IMHO) while 24 want to keep it. So the majority actually wants to change it, they just didn't agree on what to change it to.

That's not correct. 4 ppl prefer BitMail, 13 prefer BitKey, 12 prefer KeyMail, 25 prefer Keyhotee. This doesn't mean for example that the 13 that prefer BitKey would choose KeyMail over Keyhotee. Precisely: They just said, that in a given case (and the poll question assumes as it would be a given case; which contradicts the option for Keyhotee again), they prefer the Name they choose...
Other problem: Keyhotee was added to the poll when half of the votes where given, which might have had an effect.
Other than that: 37 people here on the forum can hardly represent all AGS/PTS holders.

All of this is true. It was somewhat of a flawed poll. But I think it's telling that slightly over 1/2 of the people who come here, on the Bitshares forum, in the Keyhotee section, think that it should be changed from Keyhotee to something else.

Sorry, that is not correct.
An accurate poll to see whether people would want to change it (and that would only include the sahrehodlers here on the forum) would be: Do you want to change the Keyhotee name or not? Then you make a poll with all the name contenders. Select the best one and let it run against Keyhotee. That would be correct. With the poll in this thread we get what we ask for and that was not. Do you want to change it or not.

You are correct, however, this is exactly the point of the exercise - what does the average Joe (defined as not a developer) feel/think about the branding?
My initial experience was not positive and I thought it something the community should explore.
The uniqueness and non-bitness of Keyhotee are huge strengths.
But I just can't get past the third syllable.
The vast majority of successful/breakthrough branding campaigns used two syllables - we really can't afford to ignore this.

That duck idea is potentially brilliant. If I were part of Invictus, I would consider that worthy of a very serious discussion, very soon, because it brands the whole suite and the DAC word itself in a way that is cute but not offensive. Marketing Department, how about a little market research on which of these ideas resonates best with the target crowd? Stand outside a Starbucks and offer a coffee coupon to anyone who tells you which of these names they like best?
BitMail sounds nice indeed, I do like the name Keyhotee but I agree it might be difficult to market and it doesn't say anything about what it does, but then again so doesn't Firefox, Chrome and Skype.
Well +5% for BitMail anyways!

Duckie is a collective of performance artists that describes itself as “a post-gay independent arts outfit.”[1] They produce a mix of so-called "cultural interventions", such as club nights, new-mode pop, burlesque and performance events, as well as anti-theatre experimentation. They have described their work as "mixing the arthouse with the dosshouse"[2] and putting "highbrow performance in backstreet pubs and lowbrow performance in posh theatres".[3]
so better duck id :)

Then again, a yahoo was not one of the most awe inspiring characters from Gullivers Travels and who knew there was a way to make a play on the words goggling and oggling be all the rage.
Is there actually a show about the book? Then again, why am I surprised about that, who reads books anymore? Also I very much doubt the goggle and oggling soundalike is an accident, at the very least I suspect it to be the root cause for the "spelling mistake" which led to the name and them liking the name in the first place.Then again, a yahoo was not one of the most awe inspiring characters from Gullivers Travels and who knew there was a way to make a play on the words goggling and oggling be all the rage.
"Yahoo" existed as an exclamation before that show, and it was a play on "googol" which has no pre-existing connotations.
I've had multiple encounters IRL like this:
"blah blah blah Keyhotee"
"That sounds cool, but you should change the name. Did you know it sounds like Quixote? That's the name of a character that failed at everything he tried"
"Yes! That's actually deliberate, the founders find his determination inspiring"
"Concealed within his fortress, the lord of Mordor sees all.
His gaze pierces cloud, shadow, earth, and flesh.
You know of what I speak, Gandalf: a great Eye, lidless, wreathed in flame."

I am. Discussed with bytemaster a while back. The duck thing is quite funny...we could do Duck vs Doge, clash of the meme titans.

I'll throw in my 2 PTS:
Yes, I think keyhotee could possibly be renamed. But bytemaster likes keyhotee as a name and seeing as how all the Don Quixote references are nearly gone now, this may be the last remaining reference, :-\. Love the duck meme, more for laughs than for serious consideration. But then again Dogecoin was just supposed to be a silly meme and it's now a borderline religion for some. ha. B
