@janl @whitequark I kinda feel the need to point out that the name is not a great choice. KeePassX (https://www.keepassx.org/) was a re-implementation of KeePass, and KeePassXC was, as far as I remember, a fork of KeePassX. So now we also get KeePassχ which is very close to KeePassX.

So at best you are associated with a software where development stopped. At worst, this is going to be confusing to people who will inevitably type KeePassX into search fields.

@claudius @janl mom, it's my turn to be bad at naming things!

(will probably just keep the phonetic "Chi" name everywhere)

@whitequark @claudius @janl Just a vague suggestion, but you could shorten the name to ChiPass, thus reducing the phonetic confusion and slightly changing the joke to one where you’re just implying reduced expense rather than retention of bum.

@su_liam @whitequark @claudius @janl ChiPass is a pretty cute name... I think that has legs.

@su_liam
I like it too. Bonus point it is a trochee.

@dallo @whitequark @claudius @janl Of course, I’m mispronouncing “chi.” Customary American pronunciation seems to be /kaɪ/, and correct pronunciation is apparently /kiː/, but I’m pronouncing it /tʃiː/.
