Sorry to mention the code name thing again, I thought the
whole endeavor rather silly.

But I just stumbled upon the dictionary definition below, so
I submit it for due (mis)consideration:


pearly everlasting:

   n. A rhizomatous plant (Anaphalis margaritacea) with 
   long-lasting whitish flower heads.


Seems applicable:

   Has the phonetic equivalent thing going.

   Perl 6 is to be "the last Perl".

   And we could claim to drink margaritas instead of coffee/cola/Jolt.

   I suggest we refrain from doing anything with that "phalis"
   part though...

:-)
