The name Edegal originates in the year 2007, when Japsu wrote static HTML picture gallery generator called Egal (TL;NOTE egal is German for indifferent or forgettable) and then SpComb re-used the HTML/CSS and wrote Degal.

The joke was to add a letter in front every time a major re-write or new version occurs. The longest name discussed at that time was acedegal. Luckily we never got that far.

(As a side note, a character named Cedegal Eltenbridge appeared in 2010 in an Exalted pen-and-paper RPG one-shot at the Excalibur club at TUT. They got their first name from this project and last name from a company called L10Nbridge.)

So far the only serious suggestion for a new name has been Showroom. It can be abbreviated to shroom, meaning mushroom, which inspire a quirky mascot and/or logo.
