Following on from the "Competition for name of 'chatty thread'/topics", I have compiled a list of all the suggestions so far and the number of votes for each. (Can you tell I'm bored?) The original question is now on the next page and may have been missed by some users. (I shall post the list as an answer to this question so that it doesn't tie up too much space in Suggestions).

Brenda The Elephant thinks AnsABank and ChatABox are brilliant names and the rest are mince. Brenda The Penguin says she doesn't care what it's called as long as there's plenty fish there.
Brenda The Elephant has telt me I got it wrong and it's ChatABank not AnsABank. The rest are still mince she said. 
How about Answerback?

Very good Marsh. And well done fiftypence for using your weekend contsructively.You will be mentioned in despatches. Hey can you add that name please!

To finalise this, AB Ed should give a deadline date (within this week) for submission of any further suggestions.

Then (less than two two weeks from now to prevent anyone from registering a new name in order to vote more than once - i.e. "Green Names" are ineligible to vote), we should be able to vote for our preferred name for the new chat section.

And Elephants and Penguins should be barred from voting.
Elephants cue TCL?
Thank you fiftypence - glad to see you've given my 'ChatterBank' suggestion 2 votes!

In case anyone has missed it, Ed has posted a reply in the original thread.

Dear all

Thank you so much for your many wonderful suggestions. We aim to launch the new category later this week with one of the suggested names as its glowing title. Not one to name names, I'm keeping the "preferred" ("loser"/"winner" - like "banned" does not fit in with the monk way) name to meself and a select crew of highly technical woodland creatures who'll get this beast up and running.

AB ED

So it looks like later this week. Keep the votes coming in. Have just checked up on the voting rules and elephants are not allowed to vote unless accompanied by a penguin of voting age. Penguins can only vote if covered in chocolate.

It�s over hung6 ED pink box and I got one as well!

Looks like the AB ED has made his/her choice I think its Jocks place by a mile!

According to my calculations (forgive me if they are wrong) the leaders are now: -

"Meeting Point" and "Speak Easy" both on 3 votes.

"AB Chat" and "AB Chatters" both on 4 votes.

"AB Talk" and "The ClubHouse" both on 8 votes.

Hung6/ fiftypence the ED has made his/her mind up according to the pink box .Are we getting a bar will they let the Elephant in? let�s rename the Elephant pinky? Can we pick up a penguin?-:)

Brenda The Elephant tried to join a couple of weeks ago but she trashed 7 keyboards in the attempt and Brenda The Penguin kept getting her flipper stuck between the keys. I'm only expressing their opinions not mines..... 
fiftypence, i hope your not trying to take credit for ab talk! go back and look, i was the first to mention it! a lil credit my way please!!!!!!! ps, i'm not yelling or getting ignorant! just stating!
Question Author

Hi sashagreen, I'm well aware that it was your suggestion and have never suggested otherwise. The credit is yours and yours alone. I merely voted for it as a good idea. My apologies if the wrong idea was given, but I thought my post on the original thread was quite clear.

I cannot think of any myself. I do like AB Chat.

It is simple, ties it in nicely to ABank and should be easily understood as a title regardless of where in the world you come from.

Having said that I also like AB talk.
