And (sorry!) all the other options are snoozers. Now, had it been "Santa's reindeer" that might have made it a *little* less obvious, what the correct answer is.

The choices are what the community came up with.  At this point, that
is what we have to chose from.

I'm not necessarily disagreeing, but there are essentially two camps
right now.  Those that don't care about release names one bit (like
me), and those that do.  If those that do care want better names,
they'll need to work harder at creating meaningful suggestions.

The Board has an open ticket on the naming process.  We're working
through it now, but "no release names" isn't an immediate option
because the last time we proposed that the community vote showed names
were still desired.  Hopefully we'll resolve the ticket shortly and
explain how naming needs to work in the future.

It will be dedicated in the release announcement.  Perhaps someone
might add something to the download page on the website as well.
