Ahh, thanks for clarification, I wasn't aware that it was called macron, and was trying to figure out if the original comment had something to do with politics and Emmanuel Macron.
On the more serious note, we were debating this as we noticed it was preventing Play Store from showing it in search results if you just typed memento.
Unfortunately after removing it from the Android app store name, it doesn't appear in the search results at all.

IMHO people prefer tools to have plain and unadorned names, especially when in the case of a tool to manage content.

I can understand that viewpoint, I presume a lot of people share it. You are one of the first people unrelated to our small team to give us feedback, so it's very appreciated!

I'm going to use what you said in addition to macarons in an attempt to persuade our designer to let go of macron in mementō :)

Will need a lot of macarons to consider this.
Best, your Designer
P.s. thanks for the feedback @gjvc !
Sorry, I don't quite follow what you are referring to.
