Might I suggest Hesperium (earlier alternate name recommended by Fermi) or Plutium (a name Seaborg considered before deciding plutonium sounded better)?

my intention was for this to be the short version of Plutonium-239 so it matches better with the logo. I kind of hope for this to be colloquially refered to as just Plutonium My first thought when I saw your domain was not plutonium-239, it was P U 239, your website doesn’t reference plutonium until 8-9 paragraphs in.

Aha, I get it. And I like that its kinda nerdy. I dont think majority people will get it though. Just Plutonium would be fine, sounds actually real good and I think searching for plutonium os should be distinct enough (given the fact plutonium is not an element of everyday life). However if you still insist on the shorthand, what I saw people do, have a paragraph explaining what the shortcut means and how to call the os. Something like “the"p-239 stands for plutonium and that is what we call the os - Plutonium” or variant of that. Maybe have it on the homepage even as a part of some baner or simly as second or third element under header.

English speakers will think your distro stinks based on that name.
