Any creative and/or funny people out there?

This is Excel related, maybe not in way you expected though, so sorry about that.

 

HOWEVER. I know there's a lot of great people out there who would like this challenge so here goes:

 

I have developed a Excel Workbook that runs calculations from the Eurocode 3 (a steel standard). It is done and all; all I need is a name. I would like for it to:

* Give a clue to as what it contains (EC3 is short for Eurocode 3, that's enough)

* Sort of brag. Like it's a magical wonderprogram that solves all your problems

* Contain a pun. 

* Medium length name. Long enough so that it doesn't get lost in a list of programs, but still is quick to read

 

The best I can come up with is "Excel-lent EC3 Wizard" and I know there has to be something better out there!

    Hi Noobie

    I think you did pretty good for yourself. My suggestion is far more lame... "ExC3l Resolve 2.0".

    I've embedded EC3 into the first word which also spells Excel, Resolve is a double entendre that means both to solve a problem but also relates to Steel (resolve), and 2.0 cause that's how I roll.

    Good luck!

    Cheers

      Thank you so much!

       

      Haha I like the ExC3l. Resolve is far more professional than Wizard, a better choice and I surely should choose that instead. However I am determined to make a bad choice lol

       

      73.0 is probably more appropriate than 2.0 as I have been tinkering with it all winter - it's a project part of my masters thesis and I can't wait to be rid of it

        Noobie, I'll try not to let the *heartbreak* of you increasing 2.0 by 71.0 get me down (haha)!

        ExC3l Resolve 73.0 - So much coding it became self aware and tried to destroy humanity.

        Good luck with completing your Masters course!

        There is nothing quite like getting your head out of the books and into the workplace where you can earn money and buy nice things like fuzzy slippers to keep your feet warm or purchase awesome but rarely practical things from Thinkgeek.com (although my Star Trek Next Generation PJs are def awesome)!
