This may seem trivial, but I have a few ideas for a new name for this project. I assumed it would eventually be required for a few reasons. Firstly, UPBGE isn't an easy to decipher acronym. It isn't easy to say, and even when the project is explained, most people are not going to understand UP stands for Uchronia Project. The best thing is that it's SEO [Search Engine Optimized].
Secondly, associating with the original Blender Game Engine is no longer really needed and possibly detrimental. The engine historically had a negative reputation, and most of the niche fan group who appreciated it have either moved on or have had their fill with the project. Changing the name would disassociate it from being a fan start-up project allowing it to become more of its own engine as well.
Because of these reasons, I propose a few names:
BIG Engine - Blender Integrated Game Engine
U-BIG Engine - Uchronia Blender Integrated Game Engine
What are your opinions?
