I think we should not go by what people say about word sounding. I have
heard  many people  say "Look  here, GNU/Linux  is not  a  good sounding
word. Linux is easier on the tongue.  Guhnoo, what is that?" The issue
is, does 'sudanthira menporul' convey the meaning like GNU/Linux. 
Immediately upon seeing the word GNU/Linux, we are reminded about Free
software and why the GNU Project was started for.

The word we choose for Free software should convey a message, like what
GNU/Linux does for `freedom in computing'.
