Thumbs up "MeeGo Pong" (re)naming competition!

Hi,

If you haven't read about the latest MeeGo tablet gaming craze yet, head over to this thread now:

http://forum.meego.com/showthread.php?t=3534

Currently, the game is called, "Mong." But, as you might gather from the preceding thread, the name -- while somewhat apropos -- has great potential for offending some people. So, we (the Mong developers) would like to hold a light-hearted (re)naming competition.

FYI, the current name, "Mong," was derived by combining "MeeGo" and "Pong." Can you do better?

The winner gets their name in the game credits!

Please post your ideas here. There is no limit to the amount of name ideas that you can submit. The competition will end 30 June 2011 at 23:59:00 UTC.

The winning name will be chosen by the game dev team.

Thanks and good luck!
Tim

But i agree with 'vitna' I do not think you need to change the name, I like the name of Mong.

We could put the 'M' in the middle. How about Pomg?
That's Pong Oh My God

"Plack", for the sound lifted from the air hockey tables.

Or maybe "Mock"... or "MockPong"...

..."Mocky"?
