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...
:-)
