I agree with Mat on 2 counts. First, the colloquialism of a name (any name) that doesn't make apparent logical sense is appealing. Second, his proposed name specifically is also appealing.

Looking up "colloquialism" on wikipedia gives this example:

¿Que diablos? 'What the devil?

"Que diablos" could be another name for the forum, with a logical yet obscure origin (to newcomers), and possible multiple interpretations.

"Diablo Style" or

"VIP room" or

"Bolivian Parrot"

(The last can be substituted with any arcane topic that would probably not interest 99% of readers. The idea is that the strange name would itself act as a gatekeeper, and I thinkk it would also be potentially funny if "Bolivian Parrot" (or whatever) was the best discussion forum on 2+2.

maybe there is a less sexist name then 'The Gentleman's Club' but something along those lines...like a few words that conjure an exclusive room for gentlemen in a 19th century Russian clubhouse where people drink vodka and discuss politics and play cards
