I hear it anyway every time I approach an avenue with three syllables in its name. There are worst ear bugs. At least that one always makes me smile.

That's rather a subtle difference for a new name, Jon, changing an r to lower-case.

I really would like to see a name that clearly shows it's a new club, not a version of a previous club. Hence my original suggestion of New Leaf.

I'd agree with New Leaf if we actually read pBooks. Since we don't read pBooks (well, most don't for sure) I'll put in for New Bits or New Electrons.
One other idea... Bits, Bytes, and Books. |

OK by me. I didn't know how to interpret the "or" with the first two.
