Name seems inconsistent (nitpickery) #26
Comments
Thanks for the report. I chose the lambda because the glyph is nice but Itotally agree it might not be a good choice (apart from a visual point of view). Maybe it would be better to stick to "NANO (or Nano ?) Emacs" everywhere. The name suggest it is kind of a minimal emacs. I'll start to make correction on the different packages (feel free to make PR). |

Proposal with some fancy letters: μ-theme (micro-theme). If you rename
it though, please keep keep the rougier/nano-theme repository to avoid
failing builds (Guix has some facilities for making it easy to
downgrade everything to, say, 2020, but for this to work reliably
(though there are some fallbacks), the old source repositories may not
be removed ...).

I think I'll stick to nano emacs to not bring further confusion. |
I noticed the description says
but:
Conventionally, except for composite words, words are written without spaces. And Λ is not a fancy A, but the capital Greek letter lam(b)da (I think it roughtly corresponds to the Latin letter l?). The uppercase of α appears to be Α (not to be confused with the Latin capital letter A). This also mixes the Latin and Greek alphabet, technically N and Ν are separate characters.
Summarised, FWIW (since I don't know any Greek), I would personally go for Νανο, or maybe ΝΑΝΟ. Your bikeshed may vary.
