So put on your creative hats and choose your preference wisely. Remember, we are not just looking for the name that gets the highest preference, we are looking for the one that gets the highest preference maximum number of times!
I look forward to your responses and thereby the Community Name:)

Hi @crystalysta , agreed Crystalysta is a really catchy name, in fact I do like it, it has a cool vibe to it. We had received over 100 recommendations for the name from various community and social channels and I have tried my level best to curate the final list with the most popular requests keeping in mind entries from all major channels.It makes me sad that “Crystalysta” didn’t make it to the final list however I trust you have cast your ballot and we will come up with the best one that suits the community of programmers by popular choice!
Happy Contributing!
