Worrying attitudes to the branding of the D language

Or you know...you could rename D to maybe something like....The 
Mars programming language? The name isnt taken, and im sure it 
would make it seem more interesting to people.

The reason i would like to see a complete change in the name is 
because these simple "One Letter" names is getting kind of old, 
dont you think? D is ok, but at times it just feels kind of, 
"Meh..."

Ive been keeping an eye on this project for a while now and alot 
of the comments ive read on here do speak quite a bit of truth. 
Not many people take D seriously mostly because it looks and 
feels like its still a simple "One Man Project" from a couple of 
years back.

The website isnt so bad, maybe a change in fonts and positioning 
of items and it could look a bit better. A more modern site is 
definitely welcome.

The standard library could also use some serious love...Although 
this is understandable since its alot more work for just 1 man. 
But hey, hes gotten this far right?
