Nobody I know likes the new 'Firefox' name (and my last name is even 'Fox'). I
would like to suggest 'Wowzer'. It's simply a blend of 'W-eb' and 'Br-owser'
with a slight spelling change. And the connotation is obvious - it will impress
and inpire awe. What do you think?

Note: Wowzer.org is already being used by some gaming folks. But I don't think
that should stop you.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Mention the new browser name 'Firefox' to someone.
2. Note their grimmace.
3. Wonder if there is a better name.

Actual Results:  
I came up with 'Wowzer.'
