I’d also like to add: while receiving feedback through polls and comments is enjoyable, ultimately, it's up to me to decide if I like a name or not, and my reasoning behind it is valid. It's okay to appreciate an idea even if it doesn't get much feedback or if the feedback is negative. Validation is nice, but being confident in your own preferences and saying "I like what I like!" is important. For instance, I often receive less feedback on my polls with more pompous, eccentric, or frilly choices, but that's fine. There will be times in life when people may not notice or validate your hard work, but it's important to recognize your own effort and validate it yourself. In all areas of life—whether in the arts, at work, or elsewhere—the extent of recognition is not a reflection of your effort or the worth of your project. That's just mental health worker me's input.
