The name "Anomaly" was picked out when we were still fairly new in our system self-discovery and a lot of us don't feel it fits us anymore. However, trying to come up with a new name with how our system is now is difficult because of how we don't really have a common thread. Outside of our body name, we really don't have anything we collectively go by.

If anything what we'd rather be called has more to do with the region we inhabit, Alcha or Alcha-Tera with something that communicates "Sending/Transmitting/Message from Alcha-Tera". Alcha is the region connected to this body.  Even if not everyone in the headspace is from Alcha, people from say Corotu can't front from there, they front from their own body. So far we are leaning a bit more towards that since if we go with that phrasing it makes it clear it's a place not meant to be a regular name.

We might try it out in a few places to see how it goes. I guess the downside is we went by Anomaly for so long that the usernames for places we can't change as well as our website name might suggest we're still going by it when we're not, but there's not much we can do about that.

Someone did also call out "Ceci n'est pas une nom" or "This is not a name" as a suggestion, which I think is a bit funny.
