Does the Name Fit?

I've got a domain that I've long wanted to use and wasn't quite sure where I was going with it. Now I think I'm going to settle it once and for all and Xenify it. Curious about opinions.

fixxer - where the community helps you fix your computer, fix your website and fix your technology...

Essentially XenForo will become the engine that drives this new fun site and just needs a cute, cool logo (I had an original concept using the XX in the name) and thought it would be a fun domain to use. Thoughts?

Surely it would turn up better than this "Fixxer": http://fixxer.forumotion.net/

For the logo...the two X's could be kinda shaped like people holding tools...I suppose that would be..."cute"

OMG... how did you find this?

Nice idea. The off topic areas of most big forums are great places to get help so a whole forum devoted to "fixing" things sounds like a good idea. I like that domain name too - quite a lot of scope there. The hurdle will be getting it off the ground and getting a sufficient number of people into your community so it becomes a good place to ask for help.

Thanks - I was trying to figure out the best approach and I think that limiting it to what we're fixing is the best way to go, choosing a niche. DIY is great but so vast and a difficult sell. I don't know anything about home repair, lol, but I do have a lot of friends in the web/tech/computer business.

Now it's time to get a logo done...
