I run a naming service, and I'm writing a book about naming startups, so I can help you the most on that topic:

I'm confused as to the name. Unless I'm missing a job/career/search reference, it just sounds like a random web 2.0 name to me. You're definitely going to have problems with communicating it (on the phone, in person, etc.) as well as just general forgetfulness due to the vagueness of it.

As for the site in general:

- design looks solid, although the black bar at the top is a little too tall

- the headings near the bottom could be more descriptive; "It just works" doesn't really tell me that it reads all job links. Likewise for "Arrive in Style." "Google Maps Integration" might work better.

- I'm unclear on this: can I search for jobs through your site, or do I add links from other job sites to Quivee to manage it?

Other than that, I'm intrigued. Good luck!

The name is pretty confusing for me too.

The service seems very useful, and executed well. The name sucks. I don't know how to pronounce it.

Looks great, is there a cost involved?

Not sure on the name, though?

I don't see why a name matters so much. Unless it sounds super a like to another company name. Google makes no sense yet their big.

I like the idea. Yeah the name is a little easy to forget.
