Ask HN: What do you think/ feel about an app name 'acarot'

[longv]

it is confusing that we drop a 'r' from the work 'carrot'?

[saycheese]

Are you asking about "acarot" or "carot"?

Either way, yes, it's confusing. Carrot needs both Rs to be pronounced; car-rot.

Karrot, Carrott, Kerrot: might be better.

[longv]

we mean a-carot. thanks.

[saycheese]

Hyphens normally are not good in names as they're not pronounced.

If you are set on those set of letters, "aCarot" might be another option.

[tlb]

With no context I'd pronounce it the French way, like Carnot.
