But such name wouldn't win in the voting process. I don't think that the majority of the community would vote for such a stupid name. That's the point of voting - get rid of bad things that people don't like and see what people like.
How would you do the votation?

The first thing that I thought about when seeing "Obyte" was: "What "O" stands for? Many people will ask themselves this question and nobody will have the answer because it apparently doesn't mean anything.
It is a ball. A ball is a core data structure on the protocol.

And byte is the core currency. It is very accurate, and without the association with lottery, like PowerBall, for example.
