Default Organization Name Ideas

In this thread several members are trying to start an organization that will work towards the regulation of online poker in the United States. We need an identity.

Please respond with any ideas you can think of for a name for this group. I'll start:

United Poker Players of America

I just want to point out again that we need to take a couple weeks and define goals/objectives before proceeding, and that all such discussions need to take place openly in the forums and not via email/IM with a select few.

For instance, if as I believe, the goals should include more widespread B&M legalization of poker, then "online" really shouldn't be in a name. So let's not put the cart before the horse.

I agree. I asked in one of the other myriad threads whether there was even a basic agreement on the goals. Someone quickly replied that the common goal was to legalize internet poker first. That may or may not reflect the general concensus here.
