pros:
:+ pronounced "Key 'em" suggests [[certification]] and [[geospatial reference]] (as in map key), "See 'em" suggests [[transparency]] and [[accountability]]
:+ "insiders Key 'em so outsiders can See 'em" - memorable logo
cons:
:- name itself is not as memorable as Consumerium.  Keep both?  Cium as the service, run by  Consumerium Foundation?
:- "Consumerium" stoody nicely for "Consumer [[Consortium]]" - a union of consumers with common standards.

This is my proposition for a better name for the project (takes effect if ppl support it and I get my next salary so I can purchase the domain)

pros:

+ It's easier to type and remember
+ It's easier to pronounce
+ It's phonetic association in English is good
+ it's a shorthand for "Consum***** Information Unified Model" (choose any word starting with C if you like)
