New names for BB10 phones

Stewartj1

@stephenbb81 's thread about the future of the Bold name has inspired me to wonder what names could replace the iconic names currently in use.

We have a room full of clever, creative people here so let's brainstorm some great new names for the new phones. Go ahead and just start tossing them out there. I bet we'll all be surprised at how many truly great names we come up with.

Be sure to vote for the ones you like!

I'll start....

My series: Mustang Makes me think of fast, agile and powerful.

Another L series name: Ice

The screen is roughly reminiscent of a rink plus Ice makes me think of skating which is fast and fun.

StephenBB81

While I wrote a post on the OLD N4BB about Ford Buying RIM, and making the BlackBerry Mustang model

I don't like the name really.

The Names need to be single syllables, or just a simple Character

L Series: L1
N Series: N1
M Series: M1

Easier to market, easier to remember, easier to advance in the naming scheme

StephenBB81

L Series: Bolt
N Series: Blast
M Series: Blade

Stewartj1

N series: ICON because I'm sure that form factor will become as iconic as its predecessor.

Don't call it a comeback
I been here for years
Rockin my peers and puttin suckas in fear
Makin the tears rain down like a MON-soon
Listen to the bass go BOOM
Explosion, overpowerin
Over the competition, I'm towerin
Wreckin shop, when I drop these lyrics that'll make you call the cops
Don't you dare stare, you betta move
Don't ever compare
Me to the rest that'll all get sliced and diced
Competition's payin the price

just call it a bolt and put usain bolts face all over it. That's how I feel about all your suggestions guys ;)

What if bolt is found to be doping?

StephenBB81

Then the campaign can be

BlackBerry Bolt, Juiced up for Speed

Anthony

The keyboard phone has a square screen...it could be called BB √2, √BB or BB Magic (I.e magic square), or BB²

The all screen could be BB Q-uno ,uno meaning one...the first one :-B

Agree with @kbz1960. If its a singer or actor caught using drugs nobody even notices, but if its an athlete then its a big problem for any company associated with them.

Too bad because its an outstanding idea otherwise.

Anthony

I don't think the phone should be tied to Usain Bolt just because he mentioned BBM. Bolt would be a great spokesperson for BlackBerry but why is running held higher than other events. Each athlete is performing higher, faster, stronger.

StephenBB81

Running is the hot shot sport, everyone can run, and have the opportunity to run.

I love the Running events, and the 100m is the most drama that can be packed into sub 10 seconds of sport.

Revolution - LG Revolution. Android Phone

Evolve - gsmarena.com/Nokia 3110 Evolve

as for Rebel,
Canon uses Rebel for their DSLR line, I'm sure they could argue a claim for the Branding if BBx could argue a claim for the Branding.

Stupid other companies stealing my ideas years before I even have them. :(
