- Readers submit their name suggestions for the new Rainebrooke laptop tote, using the form on http://tinyurl.com/rainebrooke (this page) by 5PM Pacific, Thursday, April 16, 2009.
- Rainebrooke will select 3-5 finalists and notify them via email.
- Sometime on Monday, April 20 the finalist name suggestions are posted on http://tinyurl.com/rainebrooke (this page) and visitors can vote for their favourite name.
- Voting closes Friday, April 24, 2009 at 5PM Pacific.

Need some background? Get the details on the new bag over at Rainebrooke or read the original post.
- Maximum three entries per person.
- If two people happen to submit the same name for the bag, the one who submits it first will receive the entry for that name – the first submitted will be determined using the automatic time stamp on each entry.
- All submitted names become property of Rainebrooke.
- Rainebrooke does not guarantee that it will use the name that wins the popular vote or any of the names submitted.
- If no suitable names are submitted or there are insufficient numbers for a second round, Rainebrooke will draw the winner of the bag from the initial round of names submitted.
- Rainebrooke will ship the winner their bag anywhere in the world, but the winner is responsible for any customs or duty fees.
- Please do not submit known trademarked/registered names of other products and/or companies (e.g. We just can't name the bag "Nike" :) ).
- Rainebrooke's decision is final.
