Back in the early days I ran a single line wwiv bbs. Lately I've been
tinkering with bringing a bbs back to life but I was never happy with
the name so I'm looking for suggestions for the new bbs's name.

Maybe try some kind of name generator? A lot of them seem to have been
named in a way as to suggest a place/location.

There are really only two ways to go.

The first way is to pick any adjective + noun or verb + noun. Waltzing
Pig, Expectant Albatross, Ill-Advised Expectation, etc.

The second is to try to find something that would sound right at home
in the late 80s / early 90s. Browse through a period BBS directory for
inspiration. Something like this: [http://bbslist.textfiles.com/usbbs.
