I suggest what 1st + Mageia version be called "Xavante"
+
+ Xavante is a Brazil indigene tribe. When Brazilian distro + Conectiva was sold to Mandrake to form Mandriva, at the + late 2005, some Conectiva users tried to create a fork + called Xavante - just like is happening now-, but the + distro was not ahead.
+
+ Would be a surprising and amazing tribute if this codename + was adopted and would recognize the Brazilians as part of + Mandriva operatting system and, now, from Mageia operating + system.
+
+
+
+
+ I guess the first release of Mageia will need to have a more + symbolic name, like Fedora has, a name that is symbolic even for + people that are not inside the community. Sadly Xavante will not + mean anything for people from outside, that's why a much more + powerful name would be better to have a great meaning (and why not + link it to the artwork? Well, that'll be to determine in the + future).
+
+ Yet, using Xavante as a little name for one of the pre-releases of + the first stable release for Mageia could be really nice.

My two cents:

We could use "Lazarus", giving a response to all people ou' there was speaking the "death" of Mandriva and it's community.
