I would have preferred OS X Sea Lion.

OS X Snoop Lion would have made me happy too.
Me too actually, Mavericks sounds pretty lame compared to the great cat releases.

Are you serious? Mavericks is awesome. One of the greatest surf breaks ever. Every bit as lethal as any of those cats and more a testament to human achievement. Personally I am looking forward to releases like Cloudbreak, Teahupoo, Waimea, and Shipsterns.

It can only be places that inspire them near their offices, so expect a good stream of Californian and Chinese names. Probably mostly Chinese given that most of the sweatshops are there.

Cloudbreak would have been awesome for the introduction to the new naming scheme.
Seriously, why not Sea Lion? That icon looks great!

What about Sea Cat? It's a small marine mammal in Chile and Perú that is about the size of a cat. It might even be a feline.
I would have preferred Hello Kitty
I would have preferred Sea Lion too until the OSX 10.9 and after that they could have shifted to California spots etc
