Brilliant software names

I've just read cathayan's introduction for moving local emails into GMail. In which he'd introduced a software to do that job: gExodus.

The name "gExodus" is brilliant. Under the leadership of Moses, the Hebrew slaves departe from Egypt, this is the Exodus. So our emails can also departe from local mbox, to GMail :)

Another brilliant name is the code-name of Borland Delphi 8: Octane. Octane is the "perfect" organic compound with eight carbons. But unfortunately, Delphi 8 is not perfect :)

Anyway, it's hard to find such a brilliant name for a unnative English speaker, just like me. I'm looking for a name for the next-next version of WinPNP, any good suggestion?
