I liked PMC+ and I like PMC2, I don't think changing the core name is a good idea. Think about it like this, there is Coke, Diet Coke, Coke Zero...etc but always Coke. Branding is important. I mean who wants to drink a rum and Flop??

;-)

Always the epitome of wisdom from the bungholio.

PMC2 is good because we stay with original ticker name, bad because we don't want "coin" in our name and bad because we will always be remembered as a rehash or second attempt of something.

PMP is good because it removes the coin abbreviation and it can be spelled the same in both directions. Also good because it doesn't forever shackle us to the memory of failure.

I am now leaning towards PMP, if anyone has any final input, lets hear it.

My vote is for PMC2. Its not a reminder of failure, but evolution, PMC keeps with the times. Thats a plus in my opinion.
PMC started out as an experiment to see what BTC would be like once all coins are distributed. PMC2 is simply the next experiment.
..What that experiment is may need more explaining though?? =x What a fully distributed POS coin is like? I Think that's already been done?

PCP is still in my opinion the catchiest name, but i would prefer to stay true to our roots.

And i'm against removing coin from the name. When people see 'Preminecoin' in a facebook or twitter post, they automatically know its a cryptocurrency. When people see PremiumPlus or PreminePlus they will have to do a rather difficult google search, and likely think we are talking about a gas or mining company or something.
Adding Coin to the end of a word is synonymous with Cryptocurreny.
Go try and google the cryptocurrency 'globe', 'CNote', 'bones', '1credit', etc. without knowing its a cryptocurrency to begin with and see what comes up.

Premine, Premium, Plus, etc. are all to generic of words to be used in a title without coin at the end.

also, if we want to be overly ambitious with this new coin, here's a good goal to set:

PremineCoin would instantly become a semi well known standard.

All though I do agree that the 2 isn't necessarily a reminder of failure. It is a reminder of a specific event or period and it is limiting in the fact that it is a reference to a time or event that will be irrelevant in the future.

For example, Coke changed their secret recipe in the past. What if the name of Coke was then changed to Coke2. And 50 years later you were still calling it Coke2 even though the change from Coke1 to Coke2 is old news and irrelevant.

We are obviously not going to please everyone here.
And I'm not in the habit of trying to.
PMP or PMC2 is a tough one though. I like them both.
