Ok...everyone, how bout one name each...then I will make a new poll so swe can decide in the next few days.
My suggestions: The Night Watch The Ankh-Morpork Guard
Yes, I am a huge loser and Terry Pratchett fan, and yes, I lack an original bone in my body.

Can we start actual guild activites when the open beta starts or do we wait till retail release? As far as names... how about Warning's Women? It has a certain ring to it.

Warnings Women is a big fat no  Seriously though, we do need some constructive name ideas  Warning-not that I am assuming I am calling the shots, but my gut feeling is that there is no point in doing any more than informal gatherings until retail-unless the don't wipe (and I see this as a .000001% chance), we should just get organized here or wherever, and get ready for retail. I hope once the poll closes monday, we can get a roster of people who are going to play, decide on a name, and start organizing. Thats my goal.

Well, we could recruit people during open beta, maybe building up our numbers with seemingly normal friendly people. Even with a wipe, we can advertise CG to the new recruits and have them join up come retail.

Sword of the Alliance Bane of the Horde Vengance of Lordaeron The Watchers
And somewhat board-related: Forever Gold In Gold's Name

Even with a wipe, we can advertise CG to the new recruits and have them join up come retail. OK this makes a lot of sense to me, but it seems like it would make more sense after we get our guild structure and organization somewhat more concrete so we actually have someone/somewhere to send potential new recruits. In general, if I remember what the Wanderers did, and I think this makes really good sense-somoene has to personally vouch for a person, who then becomes a recruit, and has an extensive trial period. The only people exempt from this will be Consoler Golders or verifiable ex-Gone Golders that have the 10 posts to get beyond newbie status on the forums...thoughts?

And somewhat board-related: Forever Gold In Gold's Name I like: Bane of the Horde alot. I dont see why the Watchers couldnt be The Night Watch OOOH..I just came up with another one. Its kind of silly, but I like the overly dramatic flair: Terrible Swift Swords!

But the abbreviation would be TSS which carries a lot of bad baggage around these parts.

You're Alliance, right? The obvious choice is "Blizzard's Chosen."

No. Technically, this answer is still unknown, as Blizzard insists on continuing the joke that they might actually consider not wiping characters. This is simply not going to happen, so lets presume on a full wipe.

Well you could go warcraft geeky and use something relevant to their storyline, like Alliance of Lordaeron, the Arathorian Empire, Knights of Azeroth, or something like that. Im not sufficiently geeky to know whether something is being used ingame or not.

I wouldnt want the guild to be confused with the other site that was originally named Brutesquad.net, and frnakly, I always though it was a positively stupid nickname for GGers.
But offer some more ideas Val, we need them!
