As it turns out, Water 7 is already taken. Sigh...
Instead, I have turned to two other options.
Thriller Bark or Punk Hazard.
These two are personal favorite arcs of several of the members currently here. I think it's also representative of our small but quality driven forums. Please respond to this thread with your preference for either of the names or another suggestion. I will be choosing the name and changing the url tomorrow to avoid these names being taken again.

If we are doing the naming after plot arc, is it possible to consider Mainy's idea where the site has a proper title, but we change the name and layout every once in awhile to a different plot arc? His one was to keep it concurrent with the pace of the anime/manga, so whatever it is at right now is what the name and look would be. I believe he's right when he says it would keep things fresh but also certainly would attract people more likely since people will be doing searches for the current canon plot arc more than older ones.

I agree about changing the aesthetic of the website but I'd rather keep the name the same. I'm all for changing up the site to appeal to Dressrosa and future arcs but I'd rather have one title. It costs me 10 dollars to change the name of the site every time so I'd rather only do it once or twice. It's not that big of a deal but I don't want too much coming out of my pocket.

Punk Hazard was my vote before, and it's still my vote right now.

That's not what I meant when I said name change. I meant, the site has a proper name, and that's what it remains as.
But when people actually come onto the site, what they see is whatever we choose to make it, in this case the current plot arc name possibly. In reality we're just changing the banners, and the title people see on the site. But the actual site name itself never changes.

I like that idea but at the same time, if we're being reasonable, we'd only be changing the lesser name every one to three years. I'm looking at a short term goal right now. I just wanted to update the forum and making it more accessible for new users.
I like the current arc aesthetic suggestion though. I'll definitely be considering that.
The name will be changed to Punk Hazard by tonight or tomorrow morning if no one has any objections.

Guys. Guys. I just reconsidered.
What do you guys think of One Piece: New World? It would be opnewworld in the url. I think that Thriller Bark and Punk Hazard are awesome, but New World encompasses everything we're trying to reach. It's relevant. It's new and it's easily searchable. I think it could really work. What do you guys think?

I agree except for One Piece New World, are the colon necessary?

Agreed elsewhere, but agreeing again here.

Whelp, I've slept on it and I still like the idea. It's honestly the name that has resonated with me the most. And Shark, I think that the colon makes it look better aesthetically. Though the colon will not (and can not) show up in the url.
I'm going to go forward with it either on Tuesday or before I receive enough private messages back about the name change. I will also be looking into emailing every member, just in case any old friends decide to come back.
