The poll has been reset because we added many name choices after the start of poll. So that everyone can revote, because I think the polls don't enable voters change their vote. The prior poll results are captured in the image below.



Since those who are not interested or don't like any of the name choices had already expressed their opinion in the above image capture of the prior poll results, then the new pool does not offer these choices so we can focus on choosing a name from the available ideas.

My favorites are:

clickz
ion
metarial
vibe
virtual

The unit 'virtuals' or 'metarials' is an abstract or futurist name of the essence of what the owner possesses. Whereas, 'clicks' are more descriptive of a good or service a user would associate with the value of these units (and other definition means synergy). The term 'ions' perhaps connotes a unit of fuel for virtual activity. The unit 'vibes' is an abstract good or energy in social networking, so it a more felt form of a fuel for virtual interaction.

The shorter spelling 'clix' as well 'vibe' are competitive with 'ion' in brevity.

The logo for 'click' is likely a . The logo for 'virtual' would be something like or which is artwork I created in 2002. The logo for 'metarial' would signify recursion or self-referential composition/decomposition . Vibe logo might incorporate the concept of waves or resonance .

I am still considering 'ion' as well. Perhaps people can learn to think of it as the "electric charge" (fuel) they need to do actions in virtual reality. The logo would probably be a lighting bolt and/or positively charge ions floating in a cloud . If 'ion' wins out, I won't be upset. I just want to make sure all perspectives have been weighed by voters. Please read the thread before voting.

i·on·o·sphere
īˈänəˌsfi(ə)r/Submit
noun
the layer of the earth's atmosphere that contains a high concentration of ions and free electrons and is able to reflect radio waves. It lies above the mesosphere and extends from about 50 to 600 miles (80 to 1,000 km) above the earth's surface.

Remember even if we don't choose 'ion' as the name, we can use 'ions' as the smallest unit instead of satoshis.



Here are various logos in I designed from 1999 - 2002:
