llamaplot would have been a great name


Except in fonts that don’t distinguish between “I” and “l”. ;)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ilama


Those ought to be banned, much like fonts which make the distinction between 1 and l difficult or O and 0.


It would still have a fun pronunciation controversy, with some calling it lamaplot and some calling it yamaplot.


I pronounce llamaplot with the voiceless alveolar lateral fricative like in Welsh.
