Originally Posted By EpcotRules ^^^^OK, I guess! But even an alliteration should have some connection and be easily recognizable. I am not even familiar with Disney Motion! Where is that from? Shouldn’t it still make sense? You wouldn’t, for example, say LP Goshen, just because it rhymes with motion or LP Ocean. The Witches would really like LP Potion, I’ll bet. Wade in here Admin and tell us why, I really want to understand it

We said it would be kind of like ESPN Motion (which is also on other Disney websites) except we can't call it that because we're not Disney, so we'll call it LaughingPlace Lotion. It was just a joke at the time. But when the the idea eveolved into a place where we could quickly and regularly put up pics and video clips (and there are more features to come for LP Lotion) and it came time to actually launch it, I thought it'd be fun to keep the name and we came up with the "apply regularly for complete coverage" tagline so it sorta made sense. But mostly, we call it LP Lotion because it's a fun take-off on Disney's Motion. Makes up laugh anyway." In an earlier post on that thread Doobie stated that anyone could log into LP for the first time and guess what it meant. Sorry, but cute as it is, it is really, really abstract. I don't really care because it just isn't something that makes a lot of difference but it really isn't as obvious as you seem to think. The fact that it took about 35 guesses from veteran LP'ers should attest to that. Anyway, I am glad for the information. At least I don't have to wonder everytime I see it and thank you Labuda for directing me to the proper informational well.
