Hello
I've always been curious to know how do you choose or determine templates/styles names!?
According to what!?
Sometimes and it happened a lot that the style/template name does not have any meanings at all, so if you do not mind telling the reason that would be great. - Thanks and Best Regards,
Mohamed ... Enjoy with respect

Someone on the team (perhaps the kahuna) likes astronomy and chemistry...
Many of the templates names come from those type of terms.
For example, SolarSentinel, Meridian, Perihelion, Equinox, Aphelion, and Quasar are astronomy terms.
Iridium is a chemical element...
A Catalyst is something that speeds a reaction...
A Vortex is a spinning, often turbulent, flow of fluid.
A Synapse is a structure that permits a neuron to pass an electrical or chemical signal to another cell...
Other template names give a hint to what the template is about...
When Vertigo came out it was named so probably because of the parallax header, vertigo = there is a feeling of motion when one is stationary...
Crystalline, because of the color chooser I suppose, crystalline = consisting of or containing crystals made of or like crystal; transparent; clear
So if you Google a template name, you will probably find some term...
Of course, some names are easy to guess, Versatility, because it's so versatile...
But other still remain a mystery... - Thanks,
jim

"But other still remain a mystery..."
When Andy and the team can't come up with a template name or idea, a selected RT member has to go to Delphi...
" * Step 1: The Journey to Delphi — Supplicants were motivated by some need to undertake the long and sometimes arduous journey to come to Delphi in order to consult the oracle. This journey was motivated by an awareness of the existence of the oracle, the growing motivation on the part of the individual or group to undertake the journey, and the gathering of information about the oracle as providing answers to important questions.
* Step 2: The Preparation of the Supplicant — Supplicants were interviewed in preparation of their presentation to the Oracle, by the priests in attendance. The genuine cases were sorted and the supplicant had to go through rituals involving the framing of their questions, the presentation of gifts to the Oracle and a procession along the Sacred Way carrying laurel leaves to visit the temple, symbolic of the journey they had made.
* Step 3: The Visit to the Oracle — The supplicant would then be led into the temple to visit the adyton, put his question to the Pythia, receive his answer and depart. The degree of preparation already undergone would mean that the supplicant was already in a highly aroused and meditative state, similar to the shamanic journey elaborated on in the article.
* Step 4: The Return Home — Oracles were meant to give advice to shape future action, that was meant to be implemented by the supplicant, or by those that had sponsored the supplicant to visit the Oracle. The validity of the Oracular utterance was confirmed by the consequences of the application of the oracle to the lives of those people who sought Oracular guidance." /Wikipedia - Please reply with a direct link to the issue & create a new thread for each new issue.
A template is only as good as the content that goes into it

The truth is Prim's grandma makes Køttbullars (some special swedish meatballs) with some secret ingriedients. He sends them to another team member that is chosen by random. The chosen member has to warm up the Köttbullars and taste them. About 15 minutes after that the team-member will get clear vision about the title of the next template.
At least that is what I heard …
(BTW. Prim mentioned once that his family worked in the elk dung recycling business in the past)
