Please don't name your tool after CKAN

As flattering as it is, it's confusing to users to make this sound like it's related to CKAN. We are in the process of adding KSP2 support to CKAN itself (see KSP-CKAN/CKAN#3797), so we would prefer that users not think they have to switch to something else for that.

Thanks for reaching out @HebaruSan, big fan of your work. Apologies for that, this has gained a lot more traction than we ever thought it would, but we'd be happy to change the name.

Is "Toucan" an acceptable compromise? Let me know your thoughts :)

That's basically the same name. Why not something unique and original that doesn't sound like "CKAN"?

We wanted to keep the Toucan as a central theme and logo as it was a community idea. We can remove it a step further by calling it TMM (Toucan Mod Manager)?

Toucan or TMM would be nicer than 2KAN, especially as CKAN is still going to work in KSP2
