i like the name mantis i think it is really cool even though the logo could be a bit cooler

let me off here!!!!
Thinking about this points out what a good job CP has done over the years with names. I still think MF is a looser of a name, but all of the others are great. I couldn't pick one above the others.
I think CP means the type of firearm and not a wine bottle when they named "Magnum". You know "faster than a speeding bullet", that type of thing.

Okay Magnum....For all you Latin scholars out there means Great, or Big. That is why I think they went w/ Magnum.
The Latin explanation makes a lot of sense. Naming a ride after a fire-arm does not seem like something CP would do (too much potential for trouble from the PC crowd). Any Magnum is certainly a ‘great big’ ride!
Mine would have to be Shivering Timbers.
I think that mine would be Raptor or Mantis just because I think that those names are really cool. They just aren't cool names, but some of my favorite rides too!! CP comes up with some of the bst names!
I like Banshee and Magnum XL-200.
I really like the Gemini, but my favroite would have to be Megaphoiba... hopfully you don't have to have ridden it to say it's your favroite =)
At first when I heard the name Millennium Force I didn't like, but it very quickly grew on me and I really, really like it.

I've got to agree with b. ball guy - Shivering Timbers. The name conjures up an image that fits the ride very well. The logo, however is kinda yuck.
