  GraphEc would be more in keeping with the traditional two-syllable
  structure, and be more funny as a name, since graphic has a somewhat
  sensationalist overtone. The idea off a "graphic description" invoques
  ideas that it deals with sex and crime.

  No worries I can set this up for you.

  All names are in the openlib.org domain.

darni.openlib.org has address 95.216.35.87
darni.openlib.org has IPv6 address 2a01:4f9:2a:23a8::2
