Default Looking for a Name

Alright. Here it is. I'm looking for a name under which to put all the music I make that doesn't go under my electro alter-ego, pierre xi. It's going to be a mix of personal stuff as well as collaborations with other people... but pretty much all stuff I've written. It's going to be bilingual, so as you can see most of the names here are French (it's my favorite language, so deal with it). I'm just asking you to pick your three favorite names (it doesn't matter if you don't understand what they mean). Brackets are possible parts of the name, so indicate whether the word in the brackets should be in the name or not.

Pierrotechnique
Pierrequiroule ou Pierre Qui Roule
Pierre à Mine
Grain de Pierre
(L')Écho(s)
(Les) Échos d'Eternité
Pierrescription
(Les) Sur(s) Naturel(s)
(Entre) Terre et Mer
(Un) Espace Verbal
L'Éspace d'une Création
Dix Plus Un
D'écrit
Quatre-vingt Douze
De Pierre à Autres
Onze
(Le) Chercheur d'Éternité
Un Instant d'Éternité
Intercontinental
Terre Divers
Par Écrit
Une Verdure Bleuâtre
L'Attentat
Urban Campagne
Description Verbale
En Cours d'Inspiration
L'Instant
(L')Enfant(s) du Verbe
Un Instant d'Inspiration
L'Instant du Moment
(Un) Complément d'Objet Verbal
(Le) Chercheur(s) de Rêves

Yes I know there are a lot but please just pick 3.

Cheers,

Pierre.

Default Re: Looking for a Name

well my reasoning would be that a name that a lot of people would like would probably be the most successful... that's why i've put this list up on a bunch of forums/sites to get some feedback. however, looking over the list i might find one name just sticks out... and there are a couple that do already. but i'll see where this goes....

ya i know it's pretty sweet but i'm thinking it sounds too much like an electro name... but it might stick around.

OK I settled on Pierrotechnique because it says what I want it to say and it's easily said in English and in French... and it grew on me and it got a few votes and laughs from my friends
