In the last poll, we had 13 names and 220 votes spread out among them.
Kibby technically did win, but it only got 53 votes of 220 due to the sheer amount of potential names.
Due to this, I decided we should have a final poll where we have the 3 finalist names compete fairly since we have eliminated the other potential names. This will give us a much more accurate poll.

I provided svg and png both with and without gradient, as well as the Adobe Illustrator file (˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧
Maybe let the poll stand for like 24 hours or so first, timezones etc.
The other one stagnated, but yea maybe I should’ve. either way it seemed pretty conclusive. I’ll leave this one up for longer, maybe 1-2 days depending on when votes stop coming in.
I love Bink and I think it would get more votes if others realized it is an anagram of kbin as originally suggested by @TheOlympian
Maybe of it was written as BinK it would be more obvious? I though about that when I originally suggested it but felt like maybe it was a little on the nose.
oh if it was written BinK i would like it a lot more
maybe like in children’s handwriting? so B and K are uppercase but the letters are the same height
I would have voted that way had I thought about it.
I didn’t choose bink because that name is already occupied in my head by http://www.radgametools.com/bnkmain.htm
Kibby’s winning by a lot right now, but I hope Bink wins! I really like that name
Bink is my favorite as well. Its an anagram of Kbin while Kibby sounds a little like someone referring to dog food.
It sounds like Bing, the Microsoft search engine.
Yes, with the major difference being that Bing is a cringy awful name, whereas Bink is a fun anagram of kbin.
It’s the tankies voting to sabotage our cool new icon.
It makes me happy to see this. It’s like watching the creation of a new community. I chose Kebin but I’d be cool with Kibby too.
Same! I’m cool with any of them. It’s nice to be in a fresh space.
I really like Kebin. Just makes me think of a derpy Kevin
I love Bink because it’s a Kbin anagram. Same letters, different order. @minnieo
Yeah, thats a very neat part about the name Bink, I like it. Ultimately, the poll will tell
I didn’t see Kibby as even having enough votes on the other poll to be a serious contender. It’s … Too mushy cutesy for me, but I say that as someone who is usually pretty adoring of cutesy things. It bothers me that it doesn’t have the letter n in it, so seems too far of a departure away from kbin.
I was originally on team Kebin, but just voted for Bink, which I do think is quite cutesy too, but I like that it’s an anagram!
Thats why i made the recount with the 3 finalists, 50/220 wasnt convincing enough lol
Yeah, I commend you for avoiding plurality versus majority.
Kibby all the way. It’s absolutely adorable
Kibby is cute. I like that Bink is an anagram of Kbin, but the word is less fun to pronounce than kibby to me.
pretty much this - nothing wrong with Bink really? And Kebin is kind of funny, but kibby is best _
Fun fact: the main Kbird mascot comes canonically from Indonesia. At least that was my original intention.
@minnieo it’s been so fun to follow this. Thanks for sharing your creativity and talent with us (and Kibby).
its been a lot of fun doing this with everyone ❤︎
I like Kebin because it comes with built-in lore, just like kbin. We aren’t starting from nothing, we’re an existing community moving on to a new place. So our mascot’s name shouldn’t be a new creation, it should be a creative spin on a name that comes with previous lore, but new-and-improved, and suited to our new community.
Kevin + Kbin = Kebin :) it’s perfect
Kebin sounds actually pretty nice
I can’t vote because I don’t want to disable my VPN, but I would go with Kibby if you’re willing to count it.
BINK
