I suppose that to be PC, maybe a Maori name might be good. It seems to be the 'in' thing these days.
I did and all that came up was a food outlet down the road from me Tu meke BBQ
Google translates it to "You do not"
so I feel like i'm missing something... Tu Meke (from the urban dictionary)
A phrase commonly used by the native people of New Zealand, Maoris, to show that they are impressed or show respect for your actions. Its literal translation is too much.
What about Te/Tu Hui ??
Oh bugger, we need an "M" and not a "H".

I'd favour Talk More or TellMe.
Probably better if the name of the whole site doesn't require explaining/translating.

To be honest, some of the names that have been put forward, are a bit ordinary...it's all that we can come up with is names like 'tell me', or 'talk more'.
If only we could come up with a catchy name, that means what it says, but is also modern and looks like it's been well thought out.
Which brings me to something I've been thinking about, and that is, what is the hurry to change the "TM" part of the name?? Is it to get it done before Trade Me shut down their boards?
