There is great advantage in "branding" and "name recognition" plus the indexing on Google, etc. etc. This is definitely a case of "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" FWIW. I’d leave well enough alone.

"Burr of the Cloth" or "Burr in the Cloth"<br/>might work- a bit of a play on the slang for a Pastor and the quote from Katherine Luther. Otherwise, maybe looking for a favorite hymn or passage might help. My small addition to this quest.

It's hard enough accepting that you left the Burgh. Don't take it out of your name, too! NO, NO, NO! It’s hard enough accepting that you left the Burgh. Don’t take it out of your name, too!

“Great Scott!” (too self-aggrandizing, and probably already taken)

“Cross and Culture” (it’s what you blog about, but not an exciting title)

Whatever you do, please avoid the words, “ramblings”, “ponderings” and “musings”. They’re SO played-out in blogdom.

I guess my suggestion would simply be to call it, “The Burr”. I think I like that the best.

Or, “One Stiegy Burr”. Or, “The Burr Fer Sher”. “The Burr that don’t Bore”. “You can take the Burr out of the Burgh, but you can never….” aw… forget it.

I vote for that. (You're going to regret that comment! ;P ) Besides, if you ever used "The Fort In The Storm," everyone would just substitute the other word for "Fort" all the time!
