It's Microsoft, it's going to have a name like "Microsoft Windows Phone Voice Activated Digital Assistant". They really stopped doing cute names after Bob.

yeah after that whole Metro/Modern/whatever UI... anything is possible :/

Vote for something that hasn't been officially annouced?

[vcfan]

No, they should call it Iris

[BajiRav]

As much as I want Cortana... they need a two syllable word like Siri or Xbox or bing.

Not to mention the "cultural sensitivities" of some countries that might object to a nude female form in their phone.

Lol its just a name. They won't actually be including a nude female AI.

Or Microsoft Windows Phone Live Bing-Powered Personal Device Navigator?.

Personally and maybe its me but the name needs to be something that roll off the tong, too many syllables in Cortana.  For all you know Microsoft will just call the assistant Bing....

[StandingInAlley]

Done!

[MikeChipshop Member]

I'm sorry but why would i vote for something...  a) that Isn't any where near completion b) My vote would mean nothing c) Is a shite name anyway?

 

Bi-ing?

 

Damn it, beat me to it.

I think it should be called ChandlerBing.

MS sadly enough never keeps there Codenames for the final product

Bing had a much nicer sounding codename too. Was it Kumo?

No, IIRC Kumo was one of the finalists for name.

[MaSx]

Call it " Bing" short and simple.
