I have some names, some more concrete than others, kicking around for the new pedals. Your input is fully welcome. (This is not a contest though, sorrrrry)
Overdrive:Hi Five OverdriveFuzztone:*
Wizard Fountain**
Fuzz Faucet
Octave ExtractorBooster:#
Tone CalcTremolo:#
Tangelo TremoloCompressor:#
Feedback Loop:***#
*not a Wolf Computer or a derivative
**may recycle the Wizard Fountain name, the new circuit is sort of a spinoff but at the same time is significantly changed.
***just a plain vanilla feedback loop, nothing special, just an affordable tool to round things out in the line
#design is tentative and subject to change

Call the feedbacker Oliver after the great scientist who invented feedback.

Tremolo: Hang Ten (kind of rifs on the name Hi Five)
other than that i like the general animal theme on many of your past designs. Maybe more wolf computer esque names like
Camelo (Tremolo)
squid calculator
shark radio
dino phone
Space/god names:
Uranus
Apollo
Narcissus
Hercules
Sobek
Osiris
i like all of these kind of themes. It would be funny to pair the god names with somewhat cute animal pictures as well like having a couple bunnies on the Osiris or something, just to spin a little irony in.

Belly Button Fuzz
I like the Oliver name aen suggested.
Something that implies an octopus spinning really fast.

'Zipwave' or 'Ziptone' for the compressor. Like a .zip file?
And then 'Wrinkle' for the feedbacker. Or 'Tone Wrinkle,' 'Wave Wrinkler,' or here you go!!!!!!
Total Sonic An... Ah never mind, I forgot what I was gonna say.
I really like Tangelo Tremolo. Especially if it's gonna have a bright orange graphic.

my daughter has just said that you should name them after pokemon.......I'm sure the 'Feraligatar Feedbacker' would be amazing, but I assured her that using registered tradmarks wasn't allowed.

I'd buy any pedal that has psyduck on it.
"PSY!!!!!"
EDIT: You could always name them after their moves..... I'd give some examples but I'd feel like a geek.
