Kindle Name

And, the winner is...

Leaf!

Okay, well, actually the winner was Lilypad, by double the votes, but I get the final say. ;)
Which doesn't mean your vote didn't count. I was totally trying to figure out what to name it and I couldn't figure out how I felt, but seeing everyone else's opinions let me figure out what I wanted, so every vote was useful. Thank you all very much for helping me work through this. I definitely appreciate it. :D

I finally decided on Leaf because Lilypad seems more appropriate for a true "pad," like the iPad, which I don't have. And the Kindle doesn't at all seem to me the same thing, and is my attempt to substitute books. So Leaf was chosen for a number of reasons. One, the cover is very leafy. Two, it suggests nature (well, so do a lot of the names, but still) and greenery, which I enjoy. Three, books have leaves, and thus it is evocative of their design, as well. Somehow, once I went through it again and thought it all over, that name just seemed to fit.

I do know some of you didn't like the names at all, but thanks for choosing anyway. :)

Good night!


booooks yum!, grateful for my friends
