Acrobatics

Monk Abilities (Because monk is that awesome):

Flurry of Blows
Stunning Fist

I think it should be named FoxyJak, to promote and honour the creators of the layout.

It has to be easy to pronounce correctly without having first heard of it.

I'm down with the acronyms. Let's keep looking in that direction to see if we can find an awesome word that works double-time as an awesome acronym :D

'Piano'

Best name I've come up with in a while, if I do say so myself.
The goal of your setup is to have all options on hand like your keyboard is an instrument, optimized for playing the music that is your gameplay.
Also practice is essential to learning this new setup, and everybody appreciates that it takes some effort to learn to play the piano - and that it's worth it. This appreciation is valuable to you; getting it from the name is fantastic.

Maybe something related to the removal of the windows and menu keys in order to hit shift ctrl and alt easier?

No Win Key for the win

No new name, just justifying why "Leverage" works best, imho:

It is just one word (easier to remember, catchier)
Summarizes what the layout does (Should give players who know about wrist problems and those looking for general ergonomic improvement a hint already)
Has a double meaning in that it also points at an advantage you will have using the layout (in case this needed to be pointed out; not everyone here is a native speaker, after all)
Everyone would call it "Leverage layout" which rolls off the tongue easily (an alliteration, for those who like technical terms)

Hope this was helpful!

Leverage is actually my current favorite. I don't necessarily like "Leverage Layout" as a phrase. I think it would be cool if people ended up saying, "hey, you do use leverage?" "Absolutely it really gives me an edge against players that are still using standard"

Thanks man :D

If one hilarious substance describes everything our community works towards, it's Bear Semen.

If your hotkeys help towards that objective, call it Bear Hands?

You should call it......42. Because it is the ultimate answer to life, the universe, and everything.

Hahhahahaha! Bear Hands and 42 are definitely going up there on the list :D I might make a stab at a poll, if you all will vote for your favorite and not troll the results by voting for the silly ones... or i could just not make the silly ones part of the poll. Hmmm.... We'll see...

Fyi, I was perfectly serious when I said Erupting Burning Finger

Current favorites are Quick Draw and Leverage, tho.

(Btw number of things in poll has a limit somewhere around 12)

Cool cool. I think erupting burning finger is too long to use as a name. I'll bump Quick Draw and Leverage up and start thinking of my top 12 maybe 12 funny ones and 12 serious ones Double Poll!!!
