www.telegraph.co.uk

The Large Hadron Collider may do exactly what it says on the tin but, in an unusual move, scientists have asked members of the public to come up with a catchier name.

I vote we call it George.

Any other suggestions?

I suggest:


"B.B. King"


That's "Big Bang King"



Can't get much "funkier" than dat!

"The Unit"

or "The BIG Unit"

Depending on it's level of personal security

Chuck Norris Particle Smasher

I say "THE HADRONATOR" with its side kick the "The Higgs" and I just sent it to them.

ROFL AT CHUCK NORRIS PARTICLE SMASHER. That made me giggle for a good few minutes. The EOTW Theorist Remover.

I'll be negative and suggest The Erebus Project.

Just so I'm not to subtle here's a wiki link

Kind of fitting if it does produce a black hole that kills us all I think.

Hmm.

"The Are we going to die (insert day here)? Machine"

or

The "Mass Hysteria Producer"

Anonymike's suggestions are cool, but maybe "The big unit" would go over better, of the two......Just for the BIG possibility of the chuckles it will bring from newscasters the world over. "And today The Big Unit fires off a...... This has been xyz news."

Edit, just thought of another: The "Microsoft Palin Simulator 2009".
