Interesting observation. Fwiw, I am definitely very much a native english speaker (in fact, I don't speak any other (non-programming) language very well), and I proposed the name. As the post says at the end - it doesn't hurt that the domains are available if you don't use a "real" world. I guess we'll see if this happens.

Apologies if it's not the type of feedback you are looking for, but I strongly agree with the OP. I find the name so confusing that I have trouble even thinking about it. Quite possibly the problem is me, but if you are trying to reach an American audience, consider doing further audience testing before investing too heavily in the name.

As another anecdata point - I’m also a native English speaker (US) and I have no issues whatsoever with the name or pronunciation.
