To spoil the ending, I'm going to suggest we switch to the name "mtn"
for 0.26 and going forward :-).

The name 'monotone' is used in some more applications out of your scope. It runs on servers, some daily automatic builds.

I mostly not use the command line. For daily jobs I have some scripts with special settings I need. All these scripts calls the long name and some longer arguments, for sample
 monotone --db=path/file.db pull server.org --branch=blabla

For me, a short name would not help.
A long name monotone is better for remembering and searching for helps about these programs, for sample google "mtn" compared with "monotone" ;-)

If you change it, I would preffer mtn.
