Indeed with three public meetings over the past 3 months, it's far past the point of "hey lets name this gathering". I don't mean to be an ass, but you guys are too late to be chipping in ideas now..

Fair enough, I suppose, though I don't recall the subject of the name ever coming up in regards to the announcements of those meetings. A wider group discussion, like the vote on the mascot ideas, might have been a good idea at some point.
I don't have the time to get involved with the con right now, so this is the best I can do for input. Sorry if it's a bother.

To be fair, do you guys want to be known as vancoufur for the next god knows how many years you're going to run the convention?

I think we can do better, I mean 'Anime Evolution' had NO Canadian references What so ever. It's still a pretty swanky name.

Fur central. Man I'm not feeling the creative juices today.
"Furnadia" wow... Nope I lost it.

Also anyone thought about a theme for the first year? Like Howl has halloween, Rainfurrest had zombies one year, Anthrocon had Aliens exc.... Themes catch peoples short attention spans.

That is a very valid point.

The general theme for our first year is "Great White North"

It will probably be fine-tuned a little by actual con time, but that's where we're headed right now. We welcome any ideas for future themes though, and for refining the "Great White North" idea.
