It's always fun to see logos. Honestly I try not to take the name part too seriously. At the end of the day the filesystem is only a small part of what makes the OS an OS and its a good idea to have some fun with it. I've always said butterfs, but betterfs and btreefs are allowed for anyone who can't bring themselves to say butterfs in public. -chris
