In a PM between me and dnaleor he suggest Litenote as a new name for AEON, I think it sounds much better and considering the "lite" new POW it could be a strategic marketing move.

It's indeed something I thought about, let me explain it a bit more:

AEON wants to have a more "lightweight" approach with pruning, lighter mining algorithm, running nodes on smartphones, etc.

Furthermore, I see AEON as "the little brother" of XMR. It's possible that AEON can become an important factor in testing new features that can eventually be transferred to XMR. And there is even more, smooth is a dev of both coins.
If we use the 'lite' brand, we ride on the notion of litecoin being "the silvers to bitcoin's gold". If we adopt this new name, the coin would be immediately associated with being "the silver to cryptonote/XMR gold"

This positions the coin in the right place imho. So the 'lite' brand has 2 meanings: 'lightweight' and 'silver'.
There is a new dev team now, so rebranding AEON to Litenote (XLN) might be a good idea.

It's just an idea, don't know what others think about it.

Litenote: What a fantastic name. Bravo goodsir! Cheesy

You see? The shirt matches the pants. What do I mean by the shirt matches the pants? Look at Aeon, it is a name for a long slow epoch. Not a great name for a light quick monetary system.. Sounds more like a good name for retirement invesment company. You got to have the name match the brand. Aeon is a meaningless name and accomplishes nothing in terms of marketing. Litenote captures the spirit and mission of the project, thats why the shirt matches the pants.
