As for a name, I think one word names are best, two words at most. I kinda liked your Damselfly idea, or something else symbolic of the type of woman you're aiming for. Oblique is better than direct in the case of naming I think.

Thanks so much for bringing this site to my attention. It looks like it’s a
phenomenal effort and a great project – I spent some time reading through a
few of their articles. I think their are two differences between what they
are doing and what I hope to do.

First, their audience appears to be primarily mothers who are casting off
the idea of motherhood and accepting that they are more than that. It
discusses the idea of motherhood and being a mother (although it an
intelligent and indirect way that differentiates it from a “mommy blog”
pretty clearly). My project will focus on a slightly younger demographic -
while it should apply to mothers, it won’t focus on them. Instead it will
focus on issues outside women’s immediate lives, in a way that is
relate-able. And second, while the writing may still end up being first
person, I’m hoping the writers will conduct interviews and talk about
experiences other than just those they have personally lived through. Real
Zest (I LOVE LOVE their name) seems to really focus on first person,
personal essay style writing – very blog-like. I want *this* site to be more
magazine-style; to have it’s own voice and, while commentary and first-hand
stories will certainly be included, to involve in-depth reporting on issues
of the day as well.

Would love your feedback on all of this – have I done a poor job thus far of
communicating these ideas? Let me know,
