Okay...this is tough.....I like my last posted names mainly because everyone can relate to the zodiac signs and are quite easy to remember....then on the other hand...I like these too....they fall in line with the Apollo name in the mythological gods and such...

1: Apollo Nyx - nyxing the sticks...first step to stop/quit ciggys
2: Apollo Hypnos
3: Apollo Gaea
4: Apollo Dysis
5: Apollo Chaos
6: Apollo Delphi or Delphin
7: Apollo Calypso
8: Apollo Triton
9: Apollo Geras
10: Apollo Talos

Hard for me to pick between these and the zodiac sign names...sorry

  1. Apollo Disposable Amaze Genesis (The beginning)
  2. Apollo Mini Kit Pebble (member - RippleInStillWater - "where there is no pebble tossed, nor wind to blow" a pebble is small)
  3. Apollo 510 kit Halo (member keelalagirl55 - Keela - "circle of light")
  4. Apollo Standard kit Sunny Apollo (The standard name.)
  5. Apollo Extreme Kit Freaky (member - me - extreme=freaky)
  6. Apollo eGo Rockaway (member - Double D - Rockaway Beach - written by Dee Dee Ramone)
  7. Apollo kGo Bolt (member - MuddyWaterMan - song Black Muddy River - "when the last bolt of sunshine hit the mountain" - sounds electrical and powerful)
  8. Apollo eCigar Full House (member - 5CardStud - cigars go with poker)
  9. Apollo ePipe Park Bench (member - laurae09 - she posted a picture of her vaping on a park bench - pipes go with park benches to me.)
  10. Apollo Passthrough Spaghetti (member - spacekitty - Japanese video reference spacekitty sounds like spaghetti, and a passthrough resembles a noodle.)


I'll pick these. There might have been a couple that I liked better, but I'm more fond of these. I made a couple edits to my original post because those were names I really felt were apt for those particular models. If any get picked, I'd like the member that it's named after to get the kit.

Thanks for all your picks. We really appreciate it. There are so many great names from you that it is really hard for us to pick.

Below list is what we selected as candidates, but we hope to get votes from you for those products we picked more than one names (the highlighted one is our preference). Your votes will help us to finalize the winners :)

1. Apollo Disposable - Genesis, Discovery, LifeSaver
2. Apollo Mini Kit - Mini (keep our current name so that existing customers will not be confused and we avoid rebranding)
3. Apollo 510 Kit - Orion, Evolve
4. Apollo Standard Kit - Standard (keep our current name, and this ecig is targeted/suitable for majority of the smokers)
5. Apollo Extreme Kit - Extreme (keep our current name so existing customers will not be confused and we avoid rebranding)
6. Apollo eGo - Rockaway, Fury, Elite
7. Apollo kGo - Bolt, BigBen
8. Apollo eCigar - FullHouse, BigDaddy (but it is used by another cigar co)
9. Apollo ePipe - Sherlock, ParkBench
10. Apollo Passthrough - Nexus, Aion, Spaghetti

The reason we did not pick Greek names is that we already have Apollo in our name, and another ecig vendor has used some of the Greek God names. The star names are really great but we feel it might not be easy for people to understand or remember. The spacecraft scene is also great (that is one of the reasons we named our company Apollo), but the names may get in trouble with NASA so we did not choose.

Thank you again!!

I Like the bolded names....and BigBen for 7.....6 is hard...I kinda like Elite just because of the look of the eGo...it seems to just fit......well...there's my vote. For the last one....it's a toss up for me between the bolded and the NEXUS......both fit the passthrough in my opinion.....maybe go with Spaghetti Nexus....:)

Thanks this has been fun!!!!

Some of these were really tough. :unsure: They could go either way. :) (Standard, extreme, fury, and bolt would be a sequential name list, but I like BigBen better.) Spaghetti is fun, but Aion might make people wonder what it is, and Nexus is just a really cool name. Arrrrggghghhh. :) Here goes . . .
1. Apollo Disposable - Genesis, Discovery, LifeSaver
2. Apollo Mini Kit - Mini (keep our current name so that existing customers will not be confused and we avoid rebranding)
3. Apollo 510 Kit - Orion, Evolve
4. Apollo Standard Kit - Standard (keep our current name, and this ecig is targeted/suitable for majority of the smokers)
5. Apollo Extreme Kit - Extreme (keep our current name so existing customers will not be confused and we avoid rebranding)
6. Apollo eGo - Rockaway, Fury, Elite (Seems to fit in line - Standard, Extreme, Fury.)
7. Apollo kGo - Bolt, BigBen
8. Apollo eCigar - FullHouse, BigDaddy (but it is used by another cigar co)
9. Apollo ePipe - Sherlock, ParkBench
10. Apollo Passthrough - Nexus, Aion, Spaghetti

WoW!! It looks like Freaky kinda ran away with the pack, with his rather sentimental choices of member related names... :wub:

9. Apollo ePipe - Sherlock, ParkBench
10. Apollo Passthrough - Nexus, Aion, Spaghetti

Thank you again!!

The 2-word phrases 'FullHouse' and 'ParkBench' just seem to go together... as do the 'Discovery' and 'Evolve", IMHO.

And as much as I am flattered (and honored) to have the name 'Spaghetti' chosen as one of the fave picks... somehow I can't imagine anyone seriously calling one of their products by that name... LOL!!

But I DO rather like the sound of the 'Nexus Noodle'... :vapor:

Sorry for the long suspense...i know it is painful to wait for the result, but it is even more difficult for us to pick the winners now :) Can we please have another extension (a day or two) to debate and pick? It is almost 3am in London now and I am still thinking about these names :)

Good night!

Um seriously any names after this post should b considered null and void otherwise its completely unfair :| just saying. Also theres another post by vendor saying how he heavily favoured FreakyStylies names and asked specifically for names from freaky.... err this does not seem fair or right to me (not that I'll win but seriously come on)

Here, there, everywhere!
1. The post you are speaking of was post #67, read further and on post #77 the supplier themselves stated:

Since this thread is still open, please keep the creative names coming...

2. It is the supplier's products - they can do what they want.

3. Freaky has already asked the supplier if he wins one that is named after other members to send it to that member. That's pretty darn nice! (But he should keep them)
