How about Korona?

It's listed by wikipedia as a defunct hungarian currency (also as a generic term for currency in Hungarian, though I'm an English-only speaker). It sounds like a whole bunch of different currencies (crowns, koruny, kroner).

Plus, I think it sounds cool, like a corona, the halo around the moon in a solar eclipse. (or a Mexican beer...)

Or the name of a version of the not widely known THEOS operating system.
OK, I have to admit that I worked for THEOS many years ago - and I am sure that one source line or the other of this system is still in there today.

I like Korona or Krona, but Krona sounds too much like something to do with cron.

Korona sounds like Plasma's Corona, although "normal" users probably don't know about it.

Most people here need to watch this talk: (just the first minute is enough)

Don't settle for a silly name or you are doomed.

Nice video, Kragil, but it's not a big secret that we should avoid silly names. The question is: what names are silly. Please list them so that we won't pick one of them.

I can't think of any good reason to change (other than to simplify).

I don't think the "K" can be dropped - can it?
If you drop "My" you lose the personal finance aspect to the title.

"KMyMoney" encapsulates just what the app. does. Changing it to some nonsense word will do nothing but harm to a great app IMHO.

How about ekonomy/eKonomy/economiKs or something?
There ate many pages and didn't check them all so sorry if this has been said before

KashFlow
KashKontrol
MyChecKbooK
oKAccounting
oKBanking
oKChecKing
oKFinance
oKMyWorth

do like KaChing...

Any updates on this?

I have to compile all the posts and then post the results, so it's easy for everyone to see the options.
My biggest apologies, because I haven't had that much time lately.

Fine, so it sounds at least the poll got a result

Here is the final list of names.
First, the names that are already in use by other applications or companies
Kuicken or Kuiken

MyMoney
Smaug
Karma
Pekunia - from the latin word pecunia (there seem to be a project in playground about this, but seems it's not active, and I don't know the content)
KFinance - The KDE Finance group, which KMyMoney is a member of

Then, the names that are very similar to the current one, and thus do not justify a change
KMoney
KMoneyManager
MyMoney

Then, the list of names we could choose from:

Am I too late?
