But since there already exist thousands of places on the Internet where LMMS is spelled out as Linux MultiMedia Studio anyone searching for LMMS in the foreseeable future is going to trip over that name. It's simply not going to go away. You can try to add another version of the name if you like bu...

Look, personally I don't think this should even be an issue. Regarding what has been said, I've already said that if any changes were to occur, it would be switching Linux to Libre, or MultiMedia to MusicMaker. As for the S, Software, Suite, or Studio work just fine. Of course, LMMS is still writte...

If the following idea is stupid, just tell me, so I can get it out of my head as quickly as it got in (finding the names took me a while though). LMMS - There was once four legendary programmers who decided to combine their forces to create a magnificent piece of audio software. Linda envisioned a p...

Seriously? You want Elements to be the official full name? I thought what musikbear said was regarding the pronunciation of LMMS. In any case, it's unlikely to happen. As I have said in my original post, we need "LMMS" to stand by itself, while at the same time surround it with positive ac...

caLRo, I'm really sorry, but I just can't find another way to put this... :c Are you aware that without any contributions to LMMS one can't really go around rebranding the project? I was aware of it since yesterday. I understand that a proper rebrand isn't really possible right now, but at least we...

Ok, these names are just kinda cheesy There are going to be some cheesy names on the list for sure. The list is a reflection of the many different ways people use the software and the many different reasons why people love it. We're not trying to define LMMS in its totality per se. But what we can ...

People are free to pronounce it the way they want. That was not what Miko meant, he said Its name is 'Elements' but it is spelled LMMS. He also had an other example of ..somthing i cant remember what, but there was the same philosophy used Name: [normal english word] spelled: acronym That could hav...

just say it fast.. : LMMS, and you will hear your self saying 'Elements' How we pronounce LMMS is less important than finding meanings behind the acronym. My suggestion was "lumms", based on "Let us Make Music Studio", but any way will do. People are free to pronounce it the way...

I've created a new topic and proposed a new solution.

vl;rc (very long; read carefully) https://lmms.io/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=446 Due to various reasons, both practical and opinion-based, I think it's better keep the name. If you want to read up on the conversation on this matter (which flared up and got heated a couple of times), head over to ...
