Name for device, "dragonode" which was a suggestion at a time no name had been selected.
View attachment 7780
I came up with a name when i was out walking.
It has dragon, it has node, and its an ode to the dragon, which is ED.
Ode is the same word in all major european languages, in spanish its oda. And it comes from ancient greek.
Node is also the same across the board, its geeky but not in a bad way, it translates nicely to computer device and it begs the question of what greater network (community) it belongs to. Its a device onto itself, but in a greater respect its about the community.
DR has a nice connotation. And DE is the language code for germany. NO is norway, and not only from me to ED, i think honour to his work is something we can all get behind.
Dragonode is available on every top-domain.
3-4 syllable that roll along nicely and play on each-other. They cut off where the word-play is. It is easy to spell, and it works in many languages, the dragonode, dragonoden, etc.
It sounds not overly complex, and its not embarrassing to say.
Also i think node comes from knot (said so on wikipedia), which goes nicely with the logo
Explaning the potential names
Dragonode (box) an ode to the dragon (ED) node for short
dragonin (box) shrödingers cat the dib or dibs for short
dragonaid (box) aid to or from the dragon an aid or naid for short
dragonodin (box) Valfadir oooooooodin

Inspiration from old european culture, in a style one might find carved into stone and wood.
It is dragons intertwined, found mainly in celtic/norse, but also paneuropean culture.
Less chaos edition
Norwegian edition (corrected some mistakes)
Edit: Idea, Maybe it can be made into a dragon/fenris wolf/midgard serpent in this fashion:

It is kept in it simplest form due to my gimp-skills
To pay homage to the german möebius mathemathician it could even twist around its own loop.
Möebios is a nice name.
Updates on versions, designs and ideas here in firstpost as time goes by.
Colours are better, used bauhaus style colours. Added font to inside the gaps
Meh, for some reason the forum software always kills the colouring, the originals are a lot more bright
Less noise, more better.
After some reconciliation feedback and thinking it became this.
The plot thickens as it takes a twisty turn for the land of möbius.
