Community badge names - your help needed!

Hi everyone! The community team are looking at introducing a badge to recognise community members who've made helpful contributions in the community. We've tried out a LOT of names for the badge but none of them really hit the mark - and at this point everything sounds odd. We've looked at things like: 

  • Educator
  • Mastermind
  • Megamind
  • Sage
  • Know-it-all

Do any of these strike a chord with you? Any other suggestions? If you prefer you are welcome to send me a private message with your suggestions - I'd love to hear from all community members who have suggestions, including those who prefer reading to posting.

  • The number of people who find a post useful is no measure of worth either; the primary use of ‘likes’ in social media generally is analytics profiling and manipulation.  ‘Badges’  on a forum under the auspices of the IET - apart from qualification relevant to the subject matter,  which can be declared / included in the profile displayed -  are simply redundant ‘bling’;  users are perfectly capable of making their own judgements on the quality of posts and posters.
