While I'd like to stay with the norse mythology, I think that verdandi
sounds good, but is a bit long to type on the command line. Its good that I
don't belive in them, they would probably cut my life thread because of
the last sentence ;)

Nona sounds interesting, it might also be a good name for an preprocessor like
the one Alexandre is working on, because thats where the "life thread" of a
panorama starts (well, inside the computer at least) ;).

I think Decima might be a good name.
