If coins were rated solely on their names, who would win?

This is part in jest and part in seriousness. The current variety of names of new coins/tokens is more reminiscent of stuff you find in a candy store than something to be taken seriously.

Bitcoin is a great name imho. It conveys “digital” and “currency” and it has a nice ring to it phonetically.

Another good example is Tezos, sounding like the FIAT currency “Pesos”.

But from there it rapidly goes downhill.

The obvious names to bash would be the meme coins, but even more established names are pretty bad: LiteCoin, Terra LUNA, Polygon, Algorand, Stellar Lumens and what have we…

It’s like they’re leaning way too hard into pop culture with the names.

If I were to name a new token, I’d probably call it something dull that prioritized seriousness - such as “Crown”; fx. “CrownChain” or the obvious “BitCrown”.

I guess I’m just fed up with weird geeky names for something people invest large sums of money into. “Yeah I put $20,000 into a crypto currency called Elrond, lol”.

Or am I just overthinking it? Isn’t it time for the crypto space to mature just a tiny bit?
