while it is factually correct, it is rather dry and too formal. I would love to replace it with a more funky one, but need some inspiration :)

This could also greatly influence the tone of the writing in the tutorial.

The From zero to hero was a joke :joy:. It's the classic name every grand tutorial uses. It would be boring to name it like that.

To come up with a fun, attractive title we could come up with a theme. Based on that theme we'll figure out the best title. Rust for example has this island and ships theme, with cargo and crates.

Do we want to use blockchain-related puns (Love Block by Block, we could also use Building Blocks)? Do we want the theme to be cooking ("Cooking up your first blockchain", "Becoming a blockchain chef")? I think themes is a fun way to come up with a title for this.

You also mentioned having a mascot for it. The theme and title could give us a good mascot for branding purposes. Ink also goes with the sea theme and has a squid for a mascot, substrate doesn't have one. Maybe having one will make it more appealing. Even if we restrict it to the tutorial.

polkadot-sdk-tutorial seems like a good name for now, given that we will also stick it in the mono-repo.
