Since

Someone found the name is ambiguous by Pre-motem
Someone reminded me that the current name is hard to remember #203

But I don't have any naming inspiration.

premortem also means before dead or something :)
Also, word 'personal' is less and less true .

Anyway, I agree 👍

Lets keep this open and add list of names in the description over some longer time period.

Doesn't look searchable :) One aspect of naming things, if one asks google for remote control you are definitely not going to be among first zillion pages. The same for 'remote machine', but 'remote gear' is not typical sentence and could work.

Haha, I didn't consider search engines at all.

Remote gear reminds me of the video game Gears : )

Then, Let use it as the first choice.

1RM or 1RAM
One Remote (Access) Manager to Rule Them All :)

1RAM is more pronounceable and easy on tongue. Both are not used at all (there is 1RM in weight training though)

the fullname is acceptable, while the abbreviation is too hard core for a man who is never know this app(can not read this app is built for remote control from the name'1RAM').

'One Remote Manager' is easy to understand but maybe it's too long for a app`s name.

Or what do you think of 'OneRemote'?

And these similar names:

PiRemote
ProRemote
InRemote （In stands for integrate）

Anyway it's time to make a decision since net6 version is about to complete

Based on internal discussion we settled currently on:

OneRemote
One Remote Access Manager to Rule Them All
Shortcut: 1RAM

Shell we close this ticket @VShawn or let it live ?
