I can tell you the origin story of it maybe you like it more. I was sitting on my balcony with my cofounder and we were thinking of names that had .com free and no registred TM. As you might imagine the list was pretty short.We had names like apilogger.com, apicapture.com, restlerr.com, apigga.com

We thought that it would be cool to have something with treble(high pitch sound opposite to bass) but the domain was taken. I also liked it because it was in the same keystroke as Trelloand i associate Trello with productivity. So we added another L and took home the win :)

Why didn't you name it Trebllo instead? It's not registered!

Also, thanks for the explanation, I've been in a similar boat myself
