Hey so, does anyone have advice on how to pick a name for the System (we prefer "Collective") overall?

We've seen some say they all voted. Others say that they picked a theme that was shared among them. But after decades of having to pretend to be a singlet (for safety reasons, but damn is it wearing us down to paper thin levels now...)

We're having trouble communicating even with each other. More and more are becoming known as time goes by and I can't even get a list going with how many have come and gone over the years (I'm only one year old, cut me some slack please....I'm the age slider but was designed to be 25, in human years)

ANY advice on how to proceed would be appreciated at this point. I don't know if there IS a common thread when you cant even make an internal map. Too many to count. And we shift the job of "host" every 10-ish years (again, safety reasons. Darker than that but we wont go there in this post)

The only thing I do know is that we're a bunch of Therian/Otherkin. More than that and our aphantasia gets in the way. (idek what any of them look like, or myself, due to this. The username was a guess when I created this account. Honestly wish I could change it now too)

We literally just used an old username for our system name so we had an excuse to repurpose it, and even before it was a username it was actually a Hetalia OC's name (because, well, we had to begrudgingly amuse a then-friend at the time, and that meant also picking out a name for the OC).

Now, we were only a system of like 20 at the time, as opposed to the hundreds (at minimum) that we are now, so YMMV with just going with something like we did.
