Json: A unique name to mention the library?

Created on 5 Dec 2016  路  5Comments  路  Source: nlohmann/json

I am asking a non tech question, is there a better name to name the library?

jsonmc?
neilsjson?

I mean, 'json' basically is the format, if we still call the library the same name, it would cause chaos. I hope there could be a short but quick name to refer to the library without any ambiguity, if currently people is using 'json for modern c++' , how about just call it jsonmc?

nlohmann-json would be fine with me. json4modern sounds terrible.

I just use nlohmann json..

Am I pronouncing it correctly? "Nelouheman json"?

Naming things were hard when I started with the project, and I wanted to emphasize the "just like an STL container" stuff. I never thought about a short name. When I write about the project, I always call it "JSON for Modern C++"; if I need a short name, I use "nlohmann/json".

nlohmann-json would be fine with me. json4modern sounds terrible.
