Apparently, some people think that the name "Large Hadron Collider" fails to capture the terrific grandeur of the device's mission. The Royal Society of Chemistry had a contest to pick an newer, better name, but the winning name proved to be "Halo." No way can they call it that. That name is so copyrighted that angels are getting sued.
Over at Wired Science, they are running a web vote about alternative names for it. Go over and offer your suggestions.
My favorite: "Atom Smasher +5, Holy Avenger" by Gary Gygax
Hmmm...I always thought that Jennifer was a cute name. Hadron colliders are girls, right?

I saw that "Mr. Smashy Pants" has more downvotes than it does upvotes. This is a wrong which must be righted.
Depends on your sexual orientation as to whether hardon colliders are men or women, surely!!!
