Having worked for several companies (or maybe it was actually
one company, I lost track) that renamed themselves a number of times
without good reason, I say pick a name and stick with it.

I LIKE old muscle cars, so firebird is just fine with me...

Much smaller footprint than a firebird.

FirebirdSQL ? Is that a firebird doing a burnout ? Like this ?

What about FirebirdGDML ? Maybe Ann would like that better ;-)
