Sorry for taking so long to get back to you.  Here are the results.  People
who voted: Luke, Nathan, Evan, Rob, Ethan, Richard, Me.  If you voted and
you're not on this list let me know and I'll figure out what I did wrong.

How I ranked them: I gave each name a certain number of points if someone
voted for it.  If someone ranked a name #1 then I gave it 10 points.  #2 got 9
points, #3 got 8 points, etc.  I don't think we should go with the top choice
(mostly because I don't really like Cohort :-) ), but at least we can drop a
bunch of them.  If you haven't voted, it's not too late.  Just email me with
your top ten names from the list below.
