Motters? Motties? 😃 Motters? I said motters twice lol ![](https://sea2.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/user_avatar/club.ministryoftesting.com/fullsnacktester/48/11167_2.png) fullsnacktester MonsTers? ![](https://sea2.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/user_avatar/club.ministryoftesting.com/baysha/48/9401_2.png) baysha MoTors. ![](https://sea2.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/user_avatar/club.ministryoftesting.com/simon_tomes/48/8943_2.png) simon\_tomes Great question. I like @fullsnacktester and @baysha's suggestions. 😄 I guess I sometimes refer to the MoT community as just _the testing community_. Yet I appreciate that isn't a snappy name like Motters. I like it! Let's start a discussion thread. What do you reckon? What ideas do you have? What do you call yourself given you are part of the MoT community? ---

Not sure what to call myself, but we are definitely all part of this wonderful **MoTley crew** ---

@fullsnacktester and @simon_tomes - Minsters reminds me of this > **[Monstars](https://space-jam.fandom.com/wiki/Monstars)** > > The Nerdlucks are the central antagonists of the 1996 Warner Bros. hybrid film Space Jam, and minor characters in it’s 2021 sequel Space Jam: A New Legacy. They start out as a group of tiny and weak aliens known as the Nerdlucks that work for... ---

Once saw a Reddit post saying MoT was like a cult. Which amused me greatly. So perhaps Level 7 Acolytes. You can elevate to Level 8 if you send me your bank details 😉 ---

I mean…the Level idea is really nice. To be honest Ministry of Testing reminds me of Ministry of Magic ( Harry Potter). 😃 So Level 7 Acolytes sounds cool. Do you have Level 10 API skills and Level 6 UI? Or how do we calculate it? ---

The answer is staring us right in the face from the MoT logo but nobody suggested “Ninja” yet? “Hi, my name is Tobias and I’m a ninja at the Ministry of Testing” has a nice ring to it. ---

WE could go down the religious route and we could be called Pastors or Quality Evangelists… Though that does give off cult-like vibes… ---

I really do like the “ninja” thing… So we are all quality ninjas 😉 ---
