been thinking about a final name for LRDL when the first release is ready.

@lritter do you have any post where you explain what is the language you're building? Sometimes I see your posts about them and sound interesting, but I completely miss context xD
@RedGlow dozens of masto posts but no writeup yet. the language is supposed to allow me to write editors, games, demos, procedural art without drowning in complexity when the project grows and needs to scale; making refactoring mostly a trivial task.

i'm going through a lot of names. presently i'm liking BraidsL (for Braids Language).
1) it's quite googleable
2) phonetically it sounds like the german word brezel (which sylvia came up with but is taken)
3) makes choice of logo easy for me
4) suggests coders need weaving skills
5) can reuse .b file extension
6) braids are prettybut i don't think this is it.
@lritter someone will need to code a cracktro for this :)

four years ago i started this semantic R&D path which is now coming to a close; i thought "why don't i rename LRDL to the name i picked in the beginning", but, guess what, in the meantime several services named "frameloop" have popped up.
i still think the OO's pointing at each other and themselves in the logo is very clever so ... uh... if i come up with a novel name with two O's in it, i can reuse this.
names that put off techbros are especially welcome.

@Doomed_Daniel unfortunately this puts me off too

@JamesWidman sylvia suggested it this afternoon. unfortunately a quick check shows very overused by now in the context of programming languages. a sufficient number of furries in computer science will do that for you.

@lritter how about "looper"

@lritter how about "looper"
@aeva everything loop-adjacent is gone. it's all diddly-squatted!

@aeva then again, i have used a completely generic term from computing for a language before, why not do it again
