GK name change?

Whatever happened to the big idea with GK's name change and all the different suggestions with a new site name?I thought that there was going to be a definitive name change since the idea was brought up by GK.
Is this all forgotten now or what?It dosen't matter to me,but I was just wondering.

We were just exploring different ideas, to see if you guys would like any of the new names, it was never definite, and we received a lot of comments that people already used to GameKnot name and like it, so we are sticking with GK for the foreseeable future...

But now you can type ichess.com to get to GK if you are in a hurry and would like to save a few keystrokes.

Oh,I see.Well,I prefer the GK name myself.There was quite a big forum string on the issue and it did seem like GK was somewhat seriously considering a name change...but I understand change is not easy sometimes,or not popular.
I stay logged in all the time on GK,so getting to this site is practically instantaneous with my high speed DSL,so there is no delays or concerns on that issue.
Thanks.

I like the name Gameknot.com also no need to change that...

and in my browser it is just a quick link that is called GK
so the only think better then Gameknot would be gk.com

i checked the availability but it is already taken but no website is located on it. so there is a chance to get it back for a small fee...

I made a quick analzys
