user284: The current name for the chat room is simply "Biology". I think we can do better than that. Suggest a new, descriptive and more imaginative name for the chat room. One name per answer, please.

user6703: Admittedly, this is very similar to WYSIWYG's suggestion, but what about:

The Biome


user3624: In reference to Darwin's famous quote, what about:

The Entangled Bank

or

Darwin's Entangled Bank

As reference, this is from the last paragraph of The Origin of Species: 

It is interesting to contemplate an entangled bank, clothed with many plants of many kinds, with birds singing on the bushes, with various insects flitting about, and with worms crawling through the damp earth, and to reflect that these elaborately constructed forms, so different from each other, and dependent on each other in so complex a manner, have all been produced by laws acting around us.

which could be restated as:

It is interesting to contemplate an entangled bank, clothed with many users of many kinds, with moderators singing on the bushes, with random users flitting about, and with trolls crawling through the damp earth, and to reflect that these elaborately constructed user types, so different from each other, and dependent on each other in so complex a manner, have all been produced by the guidelines and metaposts acting at BiologySE.


user9943: How about calling the chat room

Cross Talk

[Where channels interact, for the better or worse :)]

user9943: How about calling the chat room

The Synapse

[where info is transmitted]

user3340: My suggestion:
The Biosphere
