Consider renaming the project #118

Closed BrendanL79 closed 1 month ago

BrendanL79 commented 2 months ago

The project name's similarity to a common racial slur, while likely unintended, makes it difficult to discuss the project in a professional setting. This could be a limiting factor in its future growth and success.

This library is named after the Spix's Macaw, the bird that also serves as mascot and part of the logo.

I know that, and you know that, but the fact remains that it's a homonym of a racial slur. It's a problem, same way no one with any sense uses the adverb "niggardly" anymore.
