Glimpse: Is the name unique enough?

[lorendias]

1. Is the name uniquely identifiable?
2. Is it distinguishable from other products, services, and domain names
3. Will search engine results yield relevant information, for competition see Google Tends

4. Are the twitter accounts, subreddits, Facebook page names and domain names available?
   Based on the github name I imagine the domain would look like this:
   www.glimpseeditor.com
   www.glimpseeditor.com

However it generally frowned upon to have the last letter and first letter of each word be the same.

If the name is not finalized but merely a "dev codename", I suggest taking these branding needs into consideration. Out the gate the name is a massive improvement over the existing.

The plan is to market as something like "Glimpse Photo Editor". We are also using the domain getglimpse.app.

The search engine result stuff is mainly about doing SEO. Which would be an issue for https://github.com/glimpse-editor/getglimpse-web :)

As @BrainBlasted said, the domain we've gone with so far is https://getglimpse.app. Although if you go there at the moment you just see an empty Hugo site because we've not added content or deviated from the stock theme yet!

Twitter ended up being "glimpse_editor", but it can be changed if needed.

I'm also quite partial to "Glimpse Image Editor". That probably ties in more nicely to our social media handles than "Image Manipulator", but I've put that as placeholder text on the website at the IRC channel's request.

[LunaTheFoxgirl]

more specifically my request XD
But yeah Image Editor could be fine as well.
