I am not sure we'd even want to limit it to one of these categories.

The 'is a' process has give us a lot of names that I don't think were
very good. (Though I did like Verne and what the design team did for the
art work, and I thought Beefy miracle pretty much just circumvented
the 'is a' process.)

I think having names that inspire cool art work, are memorable and have a
positive connotation are good for Fedora. It would also be nice to have
a fun way to choose them that would make contributors feel more vested
in the project. I don't think the 'is a' process has resulted in consistant
good pools of names.
