WHY THE NAME?
If you are one of those questioning individuals who tend to investigate everything (or if you're not), this is the page where you can find out the truth.

Unique
Have you ever heard the phrase "Where is the metanohi?" or "The relation of this particular metanohi is close to being unreal."? I personally haven't. The point is, I thought of something that others apparently didn't think of, which is quite a feat when (I guess) more than 1 billion people have access to the web.
Simple
"metanohi" is basically four very simple syllables that together form a word. Most English words use syllables that I disagree with. "Kerb" consists of one syllable, "kerb", yet it is not very logically constructed. It uses an odd mix of consonants and one wovel. "Kebe" is in my opinion a better word, though I doubt it actually means something. The English language is of course not the only language that uses imperfect syllables. Pretty much all languages in the Western World do that. The Danish language has a word called "kugle" It has two syllables, "kug" and "le". The problem here is, the "g" is silent. So it's actually "kule". But writing "kule" is considered an error, just like writing "ageri" instead of "agree" is.
Summary: The words in my ideal language consists only of syllables that are made of a wovel and eventually a consonant, e.g. "ma", "o", "te", "lu" and so on.
Meta
Using the "meta" prefix is always cool.
Protest
The general conception throughout the universe is that everything must have a meaning. But if everything has a meaning, then what does everything mean? Is everything nothing? Or is everything merely something? [Add random pseudophilosophical nonsense] The point is, using the name "metanohi" also has something to do with nothing.
Meaning?
When I realised that I had to call my site "metanohi", I was unsure whether it meant something. After having registered the domain, I did some research, and if being creative is acceptable, I did in fact find a meaning.
If one splits "metanohi" into "met" and "anohi" and further expands "anohi" into "ano hi" and then adds an "I" in front of "met", one ends up with the following sentence:
I met ano hi.
The word "ano" is apparently Japanese and means something like "that". The word "hi" can also be considered Japanese and can mean both "day" and "sun". If one replaces the Japanese words with their English equivalents, one ends up with this:
I met that day.
OR:
I met that sun.
It doesn't make much sense, but that's not the point. There is no point, really.
Pronouncation
The correct pronouncation of "metanohi" (as defined by me) is "métánóhí" and not "meta [the opposite of yes] [a synonym of hey]", as most English speaking people would probably think.
The .org part?
Using .org does conflict with the reasons for choosing "metanohi". But because .org is used globally and not just locally, I'm willing to accept the contradiction.
