Dual identity?
Nov 06, 2003, 09:57
The concepts and aims are coming together nicely now. Bubbling up from the comments made is the issue of approach. What I mean is - will the group be about putting forward reasoned arguements, gaining effective publicity and being "respectable"? OR Will it be about taking confrontational action, protests , eco-warrior type stuff?

OR BOTH

Being "both" is what is really needed, but that is a large part of the problem we have of finding a suitable name which encapsulates our identity. So why not consider having TWO identities for one organisation and using whichever one is most appropriate?

For example: The Prehistoric Protection Society (PPS) sounds very sober and respectable. This could be our negotiating, persuading wing and would feature on notepaper etc

The Prehistoric Action Group (PAG) would be our banner waving, site squatting, slogan daubing action group.

Both names contain "Prehistoric" which has been a major concern of members and both would get picked up well on web searches. I would suggest seperate web sites too.
