5. Multilingual Wikis (no need for abbrev)

6. Cross Lingual Wikis (CLW)

7. Cross Lingual Applications and Wikis (CLAW)

8. Cross Lingual Collaboration (CLC)

• +1 for AD2
• +1 from SP1
• +1 for XDP3

• Short and sweet, to the point. The wiki angle is implied from being part of WikiSym, and explicit in the CFP

9. Cross Lingual Wiki Collaboration (CLWC).

• +1 for AD1
  • Also, short and sweet, but it contains the wiki word which enjoys superb brand recognition.
• +1 for XDP2

10. Wikis Across Languages for Collaboration (WALC)

11. World Wide Wiki (WWW ;))

12. W^4 (world wide wiki workshop)

13. Babel Wiki (no need for acronym)

14. Babel Wiki Workshop: Wikis for Cross-Lingual Communication and Collaboration.

• +1 for AD3
  • Distant third for me because while Babel Wiki is "cute" it's too ambiguous. In anycase, we can use the Babel tower imagery for the logo no matter what name we choose.
• +1 from SP3
• +1 for XDP1

15. Collaborative Cross Language Applications and Wikis (CCLAW)

• +1 from SP2

16. "Walk" the Wiki Way (Write Across Languages for Kollaboration)
