Ideas for Software codename

[Sparky Anderson]

I work at a small software company and we're going to be totally re-writing our software package and adding new bells and whistles and taking advantage of new technologies blah blah blah....

We need a codename for the project mostly so we don't let anything slip when talking to current customers. Anyone have any cool ideas??

I'm thinking we need one name to cover the entire project and then kind of "sub" names for each individual application or other project.

The only one i could come up with was Galaxy for the whole project and then different astronomers for each app we do.

Or maybe something to do with Aircraft carriers and their planes, not sure.

Anyone else?

Call the over-all project Water World or Water Works and then the subs can be the oceans and the seas:

Red Sea
Mediterranean Sea
Persian Gulf
Black Sea
Adriatic Sea
Caspian Sea

Indian Ocean
Arctic Ocean
Atlantic Ocean
Indian Ocean
Pacific Ocean

Don't you mean Jupiter to Uranus?

Well, you could call the whole thing Overmind, and then call the sub-projects Zergling, Hydralisk, Mutalisk, Devourer and so on.

Wasn't Pluto voted out of the solar system not too long ago?

Blackinches fixed that for you.

Then name the features after other banned ATOT members. Customers will never figure out what the code names mean.



(Of course your team won't either, but all the grasshopper points will keep them happy.)
