What would you rename if the whole world were your canvas?
Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I'm the founder of Rename The World, and I'd love to introduce you to a slightly unusual idea.
What if you could give any real place in the world your own name and attach a story to it?
Maybe you'd rename the place where you met someone special, give your friend's neighborhood a ridiculous inside-joke name, rename your rival's stadium, or dedicate a street to someone who changed your life. That's what Rename The World is about.
But there's another twist: places can be taken over by other people, allowing names and stories to evolve over time. And when a takeover succeeds, the previous owner receives a full refund of their original payment, making every takeover a new chapter rather than a one-way transaction.
I'm building RTW to be more than just a fun experiment on a map. I envision a global community that can also make a positive impact by supporting initiatives such as Ukraine's reconstruction, environmental protection, and cultural heritage.
I'd genuinely love your feedback: what place would you rename, what would you call it, what kind of stories or experiences would make you want to participate?
You don't need a big community to enjoy it. Sometimes, one funny rename shared with a few friends is enough.
Give it a try: https://renamethe.world
Thanks for checking it out! ❤️
