I've got an idea of a small GUI library as a pet project. What easy-to-type, short and nice name you can suggest? I can also use a shortened form (for instance, if the lib is called "kaleidoscope", i can use only "kd").

I've come up with these ones so far:
- Mango (is it already used?)
- Rowan (i like it; could be shorten to "rw")
- Feijoa (complicated, however, could be shorten to nice "fj")
- Pumpkin (also could be "pmk")

Why fruit? Well, that are just my names. You don't have to mention fruit.

Any beautiful words associated with Mars?

Do you plan on working on retain-mode GUI library?

Just gonna suggest my favorite Martian topological place

Medusae Fossae (MF)

Medusae Fossae is one of the weirdest locations on Mars, with some people even speculating that it holds evidence of some sort of a UFO crash. The more likely explanation is it is a huge volcanic deposit, some one-fifth of the size of the United States. Over time, winds sculpted the rocks into some beautiful formations.

Yes. I also plan to make it public on GitHub.
It will be a cross-platform library (at least, possible to implement for WinAPI and X11).

eventually adds a "leu" suffix to sounds more Canadian.

  "Cte intefarce leu."

Well, it is nice. Some tutorials would be great.

My goal is to create something like Qt. Big, usable and aesthetic (in terms of code)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/76_Freia rather that very name is associated with beauty, so if your library doesn't live up to expectation...

Well, small compared to size of all GTK .dll files. However, not mini/nano/simple
