  None of those appeal. They have no NZ zeitgeist.

  What about something uniquely NZ like "KiaKahaNZ"

  I vote for 'Stand 4' .... but if it's literal like all the suggestions above I think the name should convey the core mission: Giving ordinary progressive NZers a voice, and the core principles of economic fairness, social justice, environmental sustainability and independence (http://www.standup.org.nz/new-about-us/), but I don't think any of the above do that.

  'Standing together for positive change' comes the closest to describing what the organisation stands for.

  Maybe a more ambiguous name would serve better? If it's less literal , the meaning of the word can be shaped by the actions of the organisation over time, but also be explained by the tag-line which more than the name, can evolve.

  Maybe we could use the above as a starting point for some more ideas?

  Here's a couple :

  'Standard Four' | Standing for Sustainability, Justice, Peace.

  'All of Us' | A progressive Kiwi voice for economic fairness, social justice and environmental sustainability

  'Step Up' ... 'Sum of NZ' .... '2 Cents' ... 'Sum Kiwi'

  Sorry, I have to say this but I'm not really keen on any of these. Also, I'm a bit confused, is this voting for the name or the web address? or are they going to be the same thing.

  'Stand' and 'loud' are very generic. React makes me think of the Act party, and of being reactive rather than proactive. Amplifier is too strongly associated with the music site and would cause endless confusion. Stand4, meh, text speak I'm not so into.
