Ask HN: I made a JavaScript library called NippleJS and people are getting angry

It all started with an issue on my library, https://github.com/yoannmoinet/nipplejs/issues/80 which is cool, because we can discuss about the issue and the point raised was fair IMHO.

But it all went to shit pretty quickly, so I locked the thread and decided not to change the name.

Now the guy is just insulting me on twitter.

I still think NippleJS is a funny and innocent name. Everybody has nipples, so it's pretty inclusive too.

I don't know anymore... is it? I'm really looking for advices on how to handle this before it goes sideways.

Sorry for the drama.
