:: Alphabetic order? Why is that significant? -- [[User:VectorGraphics|VectorGraphics]] ([[User talk:VectorGraphics|talk]]) 19:50, 19 May 2025 (UTC)

::: Becuz at the level of rank-3 13-limit we expect the names of the extensions to look/sound similar to the 11-limit version. For example the other three extensions of porcupine all start with the ''pork'' sound which is a pattern we wanna follow if there's no reasons for going otherwise.

:: If we rename ''negri'' to ''negrifowl'', we could also have the current "Negroni" (the best 2.3.5.7.13 negri extension to the full 13-limit by Cangwu badness) becoming ''negrifish'' I suppose. Negrifish also has the property that its tuning accuracy greatly improves when prime 3 is removed. (I know it's a bit strange to talk about negri on the porcupine page, but this question is relevant to the naming of porcupine.) --[[User:Hkm|hkm]] ([[User talk:Hkm|talk]]) 15:57, 19 May 2025 (UTC)
