Sorry to say this, but the name "synth" is terribly misleading and generic. Word "synth" is used widely for electronic musical instrument "synthesizer".

I wouldn't say it's misleading but I see where you're coming from. I play the piano so this was what inspired the name.

It turns out that picking a name for a startup/product which is representative of what you do is hard!
