Too bad, Gayle. I really liked the name Magna Cum Laude. I'd think that
everyone is familiar with that designation, so I don't know why it would cause
confusion.
Why not change the name to 'Highest Honor'? OR better yet, name it after your
wife!
I don't think 'Peoples Choice' is catchy enough. What about 'Londonium'? Or
'Romulus and Remus'? 'Et Tu Brute'? 'Little Caesar'?
