[Wizard1969]

Yeah Camelot that's the ticket...

[woodeye18]

Crete, China, Canton, Calafia, Cambria, Catalonia Cypress, Cairo, Canaan, Corinth, Constantinople, Cartagena, and my favorite Carthage, although Calafia is mythical

[natethomas]

If people recall, the theme is SUPPOSED to be related to some for of media. Calafia's being mythical is a good thing. Regular cities do not impress.

Also,

City Lights (One of the most beautiful movie endings ever)
Cinderella

[vism]

The way I see it.. XBMC represents TV and MOVIES all in one PLACE. So the best names would be one that is related to a tv show, a movie, and a locale. And I know people are going with the lost/mythical city theme, but I think that makes it more difficult in the long run.

Atlantis
TV - Stargate: Atlantis
MOVIE - Atlantis: the Lost Empire
PLACE - mythical city of Atlantis

Babylon
TV - Babylon 5
MOVIE - Babylon A.D., Babylon
PLACE - ancient city of Babylon
----------
Examples for C that may work with comment:

Canterbury
TV - The Canterbury Tales (BBC series and an animated series)
MOVIE - A Canterbury Tale (1944), I racconti di Canterbury (1972)
PLACE - city of Canterbury in England
:: examples may be a bit too obscure

Camelot
TV - Camelot (1982 cable series), an episode of Stargate SG-1
MOVIE - Camelot (1967)
PLACE - famous castle of King Arthur
:: tv example maybe too obscure

California
TV - Californication, California Dreams
MOVIE - several obscure movies named California, California Suite (1978)
PLACE - state in the US
:: Californication not solid example, others maybe obscure

Chicago
TV - Chicago Hope
MOVIE - Chicago
PLACE - city in Illinois, USA

China
TV - China Beach
MOVIE - China, Chinatown
PLACE - country of China, various Chinatowns

looks like D will be even tougher

Cartman

1+ Caprica

[davidw]

Camelot is cool

Also Cockaigne would be nice -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cockaigne

[erhnam]

Cast Away

It has a double meaning: To cast (broadcast), exactly what XBMC does.

1+ Caprica

Of course!

How is it that people is even considering other options??

As some wise sage said, "Caprica is hot"

BTW, "Cameron" (from Terminator:TSCC) is hot too, but is not a place...

[salviati]

Casablanca, Camelot, Caprica - All good choices IMO.


D is for Dune?

[RustyCage]

How about
Cobra as in http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090859/

or
Caesar

[cbrunhaver]

This reminds me of the recent discussion over the XBMC name and the mention of the "bicycle shed" anology and these sorts of discussions.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parkinson%2...Triviality

That being said, it might be easiest if there were further constraints put on the theme rather than both movie movies reference and places, to reduce the number of total options.

Capricorn?

+1

[harbingerofdoom]

casablanca is the best i have seen so far and falls in line with the location-ish theme that we have had so far

however these would also work and C would be a good place to move away from locations... (personally, i say stick with the location motif) :
CHUD
cloverfield
coneheads
cyberjack
cyborg
and who could forget that sci-fi classic.....
Carnasaur! :p


im still gonna say casablanca

[bertrand]

Another reference that matches a TV Show: Camden (My name is earl). But it's also a real city so...

Caprica could have been acceptable too imho.
