Yeah I agree with this, I don't care to emphasize the Rust thing. I actually had a previous incantation of this project I called 'room' -- but that's too generic.

Also don't care to have 'lambda' in the name, since the point here is this is really a net-new impl of the MOO runtime not derived/forked from the LambdaMOO sources (though compatible, at least to start.)

In fact MOO itself is also not necessarily something to emphasize because because the idea (after 1.0) is to support other language runtimes to run in the same shared persistent authoring environment. MOO support is just the initial 'hook'.

And I wouldn't emphasize the OO thing either. My intent is to explore a more logic/relational oriented model going forward. And "OO" kinda means something different now than it did back then when MOO started before things ossifying into the class-based dispatch model of Java/C++ etc.

It might just be I need something entirely arbitrary and brand-ish.

Naming things is hard.
