Help me pick a WordPress title

Posted in development, humor, wordpress by Mark Jaquith on August 28th, 2007

I need a WordPress title.

List of lead WordPress developers

Any suggestions? The theme seems to be “self deprecation” or “puns.”

The only one I’ve come up with so far is “Code Mangler.”

    Since the others are related to “bugs” I thought this would be fitting:

    Bug Conspirator

    How about Bug Presser? to rhyme with WordPress.

    I’m happy see “Bug Presser” before I just typed… umm, anything is going better that Untitled right now…

    My vote is: Cap’t Bugger

    How about “Kuroko Coder” with Kuroko referring to the black clad (and thus invisible) stage hands of the Japanese Kabuki theatre.

    feature abstractor? widget manipulator? optimization regulator?

  25. Gustavo Barron said, on September 16th, 2007 at 6:12 pm

    Well all the ideas are kind of obvious like:

    Lord of the Bugs

    Obi Bug Kenovi (Well this one is based on Star Wars, but is also a word play in spanish, because Kenovi, could be readed in spanish as “Que no vi”, that means “I didnt See” ;)

    WordBugger

    Genomic Bug Father

    Bug pwnerer

    I hope you like one of these.

    I like the “WordPress puts food on my table.” that you already have for a subtitle.

  30. Trent said, on September 27th, 2007 at 10:06 pm

    “Jaquith all trades” that is way too funny ;)

  31. Ashish said, on October 4th, 2007 at 7:12 am

    Pest Control ? or perhaps Bugminator! :lol:

    bug busters should be nice :-)

    Mark,
    Thanks for all the great work you do on WordPress.

    I actually thought “Untitled” was funny. Guess that shows where my head is at. It made me think of “Untitled Page” - like you are a page in the medieval sense - with Matt as your overlord - so lowly you have no title. Um. Ehem. You know, I’m just running with the self-deprecation theme here.

    Bug-wise, how about something to do with enhancement?

    You are up against some tough competition.
