This project is inspiring and I love it! However, it's difficult to Google. Jujutsu clearly brings too many unrelated results, while JJ kinda brings up results. JJ-VCS is Googleable, but it's long to type out and say verbally. The name JJ/Jutustsu makes this project difficult to find which in turn means it's difficult to find media about (tutorials, reddit posts, etc.) and also difficult to tell people about verbally. A change of name to something clearly unique will give this project a stronger chance of thriving. Being hyper-google-able is the goal.

For example, putting two familiar words or morphemes together is one route: GoatNodes, KiloVite and so on. You would quickly achieve SEO dominance with those terms since nobody uses them. Those aren't name proposals, just examples.

I personally call it jj at all times.

I'm not sure that the project is actively looking for a ton of attention right now, given that a lot of stuff is still under flux. That is, the relative obscurity is an advantage at the moment, not a problem. I'm not 100% sure what the actual stance on that is, though.
