See, "The Claw" was a winner all along...
Let me explain...
When the Poll first started, "The Claw" had a strong showing but "The Crab" was still winning. At the time, to the best of our knowledge "The Crab" was the going name. I think some people were influenced by this knowledge. Still, many brave individuals voted for "The Claw" (coming in at No. 2). Willie et al., I assume, realizing "The Crab" name connoted negativity, saw our suggestions, saw our reasoning, circumvented our process. His post appeared AFTER our thread/Poll and his post included no less than 3 of our names. This means we should pat ourselves on the back.
Now, now that "The Claw" is the going name, it's overtaken "The Crab" to No. 1 position. Thus proving my initial hypothesis that people are influenced by the going name.
So "The Claw" was the winner from the start, "The Crab" was out... now "The Claw" is just benefitting from the influenced vote.
