We need:

A catchy name for that project. 😉
- "Catchyness" is one thing - it needs to have nice name / shortcut for a command line interface.
Motivation and rationale - why we created it in the first place?
- Section in README.md and maybe longer explanation on the wiki if needed.
Clear goal - with what we want to help via this tool?
- Section in README.md and maybe longer explanation on the wiki if needed.

Possible options for a name:

Name from a particular type of clouds - I really like this idea, that I've picked it for naming releases / milestones.
Weather related: Weather, Pressure, Atmospheric Front, Nephology (science about clouds).
Entities related:
- Thumper (in meaning of giant), Colossus.
- Bebok (Polish / Silesian boogeyman).
- This one is free.
Deities related:
- Slavic: Perun, Triglav, Dazhbog (deities of sky, wind, storm).
- Perun is taken. 😞
- Nordic: Njord (deity of wind).
