Less Wrong
The Modern Rationality Institute.
The institute for Bayesian Reasoning
Center for applied rationality.
The Applied Rationality Institute
Upvoted for "Center for Applied Rationality".
"The Eliezer Yudkowsky Center for Kids Who Can't Think Good and Wanna Learn to Do Other Stuff Good Too"
"The Eliezer Yudkowsky center for promoting rationality" actually sounds like a nice and honest name to me.
I hereby rescind my earlier comment.
If only it made a better acronym!
Upvoted for "Less Wrong".
It's a perfectly good name for a website, and it's a perfectly good name for an institute.
I like how Center for Applied Rationality sounds, though it might be too long. Or maybe that isn't a problem and suddenly the amount of times I type the word CAR would increase.
How about Colligate Institute? Though maybe Colligate is too obscure a word (Google Chrome's spell-checker has it underlined in red).
Looks too much like a typo for "collegiate", which is a much more common word.
I'd say its pretty obscure.
