I think the names should reflect the fact we are here to save money ultimately - not become nerdy. Why can't they be money-related names? There was nothing wrong with ever so regular moneysaver or newbie moneysaver, so why change those? They could have then gone on with fabulously frugal moneysaver, super savvy moneysaver, etc. for example.

I can't say I'm overly bothered by the name change, but rather than offend people with mental health problems, it might offend people who were bullied at school and called geeks and nerds instead.

what kids at school get called MoneySaving SuperGeek

no one at school would have got called a money saving super geek, but we did get called geeks and nerds, and it was meant in a nasty way. Like I say, I aren't bothered personally, but I can see why some people might not like it.
