With the announcement of a third wiki on Discord focusing on technical identity (warning screens, test cards, film leader formats, splash screens, startup screens, EAS, and other similar screens), what names do you have in mind for this new wiki?

Post any name you have in mind below.

Technical IDentity Encyclopedia (TIDE)

(not sure if i'm formatting this correctly but here we go)

Just a simple name I thought up, perfectly describes what the wiki is about.

We've also had Technical Idents and Cards Archive (TICA) and Technical Idents and Cards Museum (TICM) suggested on the Discord.

EDIT: Just suggested Encyclopedia of Technical Idents and Cards (ETIC). It's inspired by "Sam Etic", Dustin Hoffman's pseudonym in "Lisa's Substitute", the episode of The Simpsons he guest-starred in.

That's a nice name!

Let's just do Technical Identity Database (TID or TIdD). The last acronym has potential for a cool logo.

I like TIDE, its fluid, follows the classic 4 letter acronym stuff, and could also technically be a homage to Wikitide.

TICA is also my backup
