Quite a lot, it turns out. So much, in fact, that we’ve decided to let you help us out. Which brings us to the first official Picnik Poll!
Update: Thanks to everyone who commented and voted! We’ve opened up a new poll with some new options here.
What should we call the premium version of Picnik?
- These all stink (42%, 18 Votes)
- Primo (28%, 12 Votes)
- Sky (19%, 8 Votes)
- Grande (12%, 5 Votes)
Total Voters: 43

Sky’s too arbitrary and Grande isn’t exactly accurate and reminds me of Starbucks so I’m left with Primo. I was going to say “these all stink” and suggest just “premium” but if you want to be “unique” who am I to knock it; but then if you want to be creative I do think you should just go with what you like then and screw opinion polls.

I agree with Chris, Primo sounds cool, but my problem is that it doesn’t build on the clever picnic idea. Keep it up!

Naming is pretty tough. We’d love to tie it into the whole picnik idea, but frankly, we’ve come up blank. ‘basket’ wasn’t good enough. We had a lot of food references, but we didn’t like those either.
That said, we started to think about how these ideas would play out on the site. Grande could tie into the coffee thing (we’re from Seattle), Sky can ty into the picnik outdoors (maybe change your grass to sky if you’re a sky user), and Primo, well, we just liked the sound of it and Peter is part Italian.
Vote for your fav. If you have something that you think is even better, we’d love to hear about it. Send it to us via Feedback in Picnik.

How about Extra? or to go with the picnic theme, something like Condomints… or Toppings?

Expanding on the “Picnik” theme, I suggest the expanded version be called –
“Picnik S’mores”
I leave providing a basis for this name up to you but you’d have to be un-american to not know what “S’mores” connotes or never have made one
at the end of a perfect day — camping trip — or even at home on a cookie pan
in the oven — s’wonderful –s’delicious — s’satisfying!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Clearly, Piknik Blanket would do it justice… ’cause a blanket covers everything.
