Finalizing the New Channel Name
Added 2020-02-13 20:53:44 +0000 UTCThis is the last post to figure out the new channel name. I promise.
We're down to two possibilities now:
Wizardry Workshop
Maker Magic
You are probably wondering what about Wizard Workshop and Magical Mischief. Well, there's already a YouTube channel called Wizard Workshop with over 100 videos.
There's also a channel called Magical Mischief (and Mischief Magic) both are small but active.
There's a channel called Maker's Magic, all about doing magic tricks, so I think Maker Magic is ok because it doesn't have the s and the content is completely different.
I can't decide which of these two I want to go with. Wizardry Workshop is more engaging than Maker Magic, but it's much longer and doesn't flow as well. Maker Magic is much more simple, but maybe a bit too plain - and some people may not know the term maker and might just get confused with the order of the words.
HELP!

Wizard Workshop for sure. BTW why can't you push back to WB and state that they can't copyright the word muggle. It's been used too many times before: Muggle is used in informal English by Mensa members to define non-members or any person with IQ lower than Mensa level. According to the BBC quiz show QI, in the episode "Hocus Pocus", muggle was a 1930s jazz slang word for someone who uses cannabis. "Muggles" is the title of a 1928 recording by Louis Armstrong and His Orchestra. A muggle is, according to Abbott Walter Bower, the author of the Scotichronicon, "an Englishman's tail". In Alistair Moffat's book A History of the Borders from Early Times, it is stated that there was a widely held 13th-century belief amongst Scots that Englishmen had tails.[3] Ernest Bramah referred to "the artful Muggles" in a detective story published decades before the Potter books ("The Ghost at Massingham Mansions", in The Eyes of Max Carrados, Doran, New York, 1924). Muggles is the name of a female character in the children's book The Gammage Cup by Carol Kendall published in 1959 by Harcourt, Brace & World. Published in 1982, Roald Dahl's character the Big Friendly Giant uses the word “Muggled” while describing a good dream to the other main character, Sophie - “And the whole school is then cheering like mad and shouting bravo well done, and, for ever after that, even when you is getting your sums all gungswizzled and muggled up, Mr. Figgins is always giving you ten out of ten and writing Good Work Sophie in your exercise book.” – The BFG. Roald Dahl also names a family of monkeys “The Muggle-Wumps” in The Twits and other writings. Muggle was added to the Oxford English Dictionary in 2003, where it is said to refer to a person who is lacking a skill.[4] Muggle is used in informal English by members of small, specialised groups, usually those that consider their activities to either be analogous to or directly involve magic (such as within hacker culture;[5] and pagans, Neopagans and Wiccans)[6] to refer to those outside the group. In online forums for people with herpes, Muggle is used to describe someone who (presumably) does not have HSV. Muggle (or geomuggle) is used by geocachers to refer to those not involved in or aware of the sport of geocaching. A cache that has been tampered with by non-participants is said to be plundered or muggled.[7]
2020-02-21 18:16:39 +0000 UTCI am late for everything! That's what happens when I stop checking your Patreon daily. I am glad they are going to leave you in peace from now on. But I can't help but thinking, since they contacted you so many times before, why they did not bring up this issue earlier? Sometimes it feels to me that they just want you out of the internet entirely, and not sharing your talent with everyone... I am up for everything as long as you are happy with it. I very much like the new name, and I know this new era will bring a lot of good things. Count me on for (almost) anything you need help with! ♥
