    Is Kubuntu 23.10 M M Name: Maverick Meerkat?

    At the moment there is no official name for Kubuntu 23.10 other than M M. After searching Ubuntu names, I found in the M list these highlighted names. So do you think this is a good name?

    I look forward to the official name and it will be interesting to see if this is the one selected.

    CORRECTION:

    After a little more searching, I found the reason for Maverick Meerkat being highlighted in the list that I was looking at. It was because that name was used for the 10.10 distribution. I do not think a name will be reused, so I wait to see what name is decided.

    Maverick Meerkat was the name of *buntu 10.10...quite unlikely they'll be using it again:

      Perhaps it will be "Mysterious Mink"?

            Hissing (Madagascar) Cockroach

            One could take poetic license and call it Hissing Madagascar-Cockroach.

            What's nice about this one, is the adjective is already part of the name.

                  Good to see so many creative names. My worth for a name with lots of M's is:

                  I just hope it is not too long before the MM name is made public.

                    It WILL be Mantic something, that much is certain. See my link.

                        I'm surprised no one has tried with Mosquito. I think that is what it should be. Just not sure of the adj. to use.

                            With Minotaur involved I'm sure there were lots of sexual innuendos thrown around.
