+1 for names (but as subtitle of the number)
+0 for cocktail names
As for the choice, IMO if should be part of the branch roadmap process
since the name is for the branch and not for each release.

Hello friends,
I would like to propose introducing the use of code names for each release cycle of XWiki
(2.x, 3.x, etc.), using a agreed-on scheme (a la Ubuntu [1]). The main reason behind this
proposal is that :
A. it's groovy :)
B. there is no B.
As for the code name scheme, with regard to recent events involving a fair portion of the
XWiki Development team [2], I would like to propose the use of cocktail names as code
names. Some examples - for the sake of illustration : XWiki "Cuba Libre" 2.5,
XWiki "White Russian" 2.6, XWiki "Bloody Mary" 3.0, etc. you name it!
[3]. Virgin cocktails tolerated :)
The release manager for each cycle would have the honor to pick up the release code name.
Isn't that an awesome incentive ?
+1 for all that
Jerome.
