Hi everybody,
I personally think that Odoo Medical sounds good, simple and is accurate
(Odoo+Medical). As Fabien suggests, it is easier to rally community and
user with a meaningful name. Nevertheless the change of name have
impacted the community so we need to be careful.
We have board meeting on Monday 11 and will issue a recommendation.

You should differenciate the technical name (crm, hr_recruitment)
and the public app name (Odoo CRM, Odoo Recruit)
You should not put Odoo in the technical name because it's a mess
for developers.
But for the app name, I don't understand why you would not put the
Odoo name in it? for the majority of the apps (may be not
medical), the main public is Odoo users (people looking for Odoo
XYZ on the web) If one app is called "Odoo Medical" and another
one is called with an invented name "Easy Medical". Which one will
be perceived as the main one and will be tested first by the Odoo
community?
I am agree with you about Odoo Medical (but my personal opinion i love
simplest brand Medical).
Odoo Medical is good and following odoo apps, market is defined and we
must follow and power all apps.
In my opinion, it's better if everyone benefit from and contribute
to the Odoo branding rather than using a different name. Mostly
because 99.99% of Odoo apps don't have enough marketing resources
to build serious visibility outside the Odoo world.
PS: There will be no renaming in the future because: we can't
afford one more, we don't need it since the Odoo name has no
meaning. Even if Odoo evolves into something different, the name
is not a constraint.
Great !
