Fun fact: the main Kbird mascot comes canonically from Indonesia. At least that was my original intention.
I love Bink and I think it would get more votes if others realized it is an anagram of kbin as originally suggested by @TheOlympian
Maybe of it was written as BinK it would be more obvious? I though about that when I originally suggested it but felt like maybe it was a little on the nose.
oh if it was written BinK i would like it a lot more
maybe like in children's handwriting? so B and K are uppercase but the letters are the same height
Kibby's winning by a lot right now, but I hope Bink wins! I really like that name
Bink is my favorite as well. Its an anagram of Kbin while Kibby sounds a little like someone referring to dog food.
It sounds like Bing, the Microsoft search engine.
Yes, with the major difference being that Bing is a cringy awful name, whereas Bink is a fun anagram of kbin.
Maybe let the poll stand for like 24 hours or so first, timezones etc.
The other one stagnated, but yea maybe I should've. either way it seemed pretty conclusive. I'll leave this one up for longer, maybe 1-2 days depending on when votes stop coming in.
It makes me happy to see this. It’s like watching the creation of a new community. I chose Kebin but I’d be cool with Kibby too.
I like Kebin because it comes with built-in lore, just like kbin. We aren't starting from nothing, we're an existing community moving on to a new place. So our mascot's name shouldn't be a new creation, it should be a creative spin on a name that comes with previous lore, but new-and-improved, and suited to our new community.
Kevin + Kbin = Kebin :) it's perfect
I didn't see Kibby as even having enough votes on the other poll to be a serious contender. It's ... Too mushy cutesy for me, but I say that as someone who is usually pretty adoring of cutesy things. It bothers me that it doesn't have the letter n in it, so seems too far of a departure away from kbin.
I was originally on team Kebin, but just voted for Bink, which I do think is quite cutesy too, but I like that it's an anagram!
@minnieo it’s been so fun to follow this. Thanks for sharing your creativity and talent with us (and Kibby).
I really like Kebin. Just makes me think of a derpy Kevin
