Poll to rename the palatr smilie

In this thread, it has been suggested that the R in should be replaced with a less contentious word. One that starts with R, so that old usages don't get fenrised.

What better time for a poll? I have gathered some suggestions, but feel free to suggest some here, and they might get considered.

Not public, not multiple choice.

I still like point and laugh at the dumbass. If people say, "but the acronym is paltr", say, "yeah, the 'r' is for 'dumbass'".
