I am part of the team that is buying the coin. Over the next few days/weeks we are going to be:
- changing the name. We are making this decision over the next 24 hours. We are keeping the ticker TAK but as part of the agreement we need to change the name to something other than Takeicoin. Takcoin or Takiecoin or Takocoin are among the top three choices.
- change the website. We are going to be investing a serious amount of effort into making a top of the line website for the coin/project. We will have an e-commerce store tied into the website that will be donating $.25 for every $1 spent to an animal organization of the buyer's choice.
- the coin is going to keep the philanthropic mindset the original team had in mind - the new team will be focusing on animal specific charitable organizations.
- from a technical standpoint - the coin will continue to roll forward as TAK. New wallets and an updated website are to be ready by April.
Good things are to come and we are open to feedback from the community.
I can't believe you're ignoring the Take Action Coin suggested by someone before. It's an awesome name in any way and TakeACoin has a nice second meaning
Take a Coin sounds good but TAKE ACTION is way better... Take a look at the humane society, we can do something and help the cause too.
TAKE ACTION COIN...... That has way more branding power and way better keyword
"Take action for animals! ... to shut down the plant."

I just played with words a little bit. It's the same name, just written in a different way. To summarize:
* Take Action Coin - sounds strong and is perfect to charity coin
* Shortening TakeA sounds almost the same as Takei (the beauty of english language)
* Shortening TakeACoin, while meaning the same Take Action Coin, could be used for marketing purposes, still sounds charitable, perfect name for faucet too
Takcoin, Takiecoin, Takocoin all sound bland and meaningless, IMHO.
