CathleenRitt #NameAKodak Compilation

As of today, August 20, 2009 I have suggested 10 names for the #NameAKodak contest.  

CathleenRitt #NameAKodak entries listed in the order I submitted them.

  1. Zok or Zokit
  2. Zodiak
  3. Zeek
  4. Zanto
  5. Zingo
  6. Zango
  7. Zid 
  8. Zar 
  9. Zoda 
  10. Zapa 

The reason I suggested a name is usually in the tweet or in the one blog comment.  I added some comments to the tweets to expand on the ideas or to give more background.  The tweets are listed in backward chronological order.

    • Comment: Yes I actually went and read about Kodak founder George Eastman and how he got the idea for his film products from his experience buying a bulky camera for a planned vacation to Santo Domingo.  I thought that was a great story for naming the new video camera because I got the feeling it has a similar purpose as a product.  

  • Madmen_icon_normalCathleenRitt @kodakCB #NameAKodak I’m living the Z name dream. Zeek - it’s fun, sleek and it’s got Eastman Kodak built into it1 day ago from web

  • Madmen_icon_normalCathleenRitt @kodakCB #NameAKodak How about Zodiak - It plays off Kodak and Kodiak - adventure - but versatile -no matter your sign, you’ll love it1 day ago from web
    • Comment: I love Zodiak as a name for all the reasons I gave in the original tweet.  

  • Madmen_icon_normalCathleenRitt Posted my #NameAKodak suggestion Zokit or Zok on the blog because I explained my choicehttp://is.gd/2nsWn
    • Comment: I wrote at length on the blog why I picked and liked this name.  For me it captures the feeling of sturdiness and fun and the idea of using it as a noun or a verb in your promotion. •
