What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet

I find the need, as I involve more people with my little video project, to settle this issue of a name. If it were I alone, just talking to the camera, my name might suffice. I know the truth though, that having only me was never the plan. I just work better with other people, not to mention I just think too big to stick with anything I could do by myself. I have been blessed, and have met some very talented and wonderful people, people who share my love of doing this sort of thing. It doesn't make it any easier though. Bringing others into your world only brings its own set of problems.

Some of you know that this whole video idea isn't anything new. I have wanted to make a comedy show for several years now. It has always been one of those close but un-obtainable goals. My downfall had always been a co-host. I am very dedicated to my own projects, some would say, to a fault. But always the show was me and a co-host. I wrote and we prepared to film, and always the other person either didn't want to continue, or could not.

When the subject of names for this current set of videos I'm planning comes up, I can't help but feel somewhat superstitious. I can't help asking "If I attach a name to this, of something that failed so many times before, will this too fall apart and be another un-obtainable dream?" I don't know if the name alone could truly doom something in such a way, but I do know that this new thing has a chance to succeed (in one measure or another), and I feel it needs its own identity.

I guess what I'm asking for here is ideas people. I'm not sure what to call these videos. It would probably be better if you could see the things to come first, but I think to some extent you know me, and you have seen how my sense of humor works. Now just imagine two more hilarious people added to the mix and give me some suggestions!
