Catchy word?

    What's a catchy and exciting word for "history"? I'm making a app with history videos but want to make it more sound more exciting than "history".

    "Legacy" is a generally a positive word when it comes to historical matters.

    Can you tell which specific sub-niche of history the videos pertain to? That would make it easier to point out more appealing suggestions.
    You have had many good alternatives to 'history' so far but something specific will sound more catchy as per me.

    That was brilliant. How about 'A browse through the memory lane'? Doesn't it sound more suitable for the web?

    It's actually history of a religous community.

    I really like legacy. I should have mentioned what history I would be referring to as Content Maestro suggested. This would be history of a religous community, and legacy would work great because much of this history is passed down by the leaders of this religous organization. Thanks!!!

    OK well. I will try to find some appealing names for it then.
    But can you be still more specific? Like 'which religious community?', 'who is your target audience?' etc. etc. If it's possible to share that, it will make the search more pointed and focused rather than suggesting something that is vague and comes across randomly.

    Your idea is more brilliant. The word "browse" made the cliche original lol :cool: I like it!

    Thanks @Droid82.
    ‘Legacy’ by @jrbiz was a good shot too. Looks like the OP has settled on it.

    Just thought of combining the two into something like ‘A browse through the Legacy Lane’. But I guess it sounds too long for an app name. Wait, how about using it as a slogan for the app instead?

    So it is good to have some religious touch in the word phrase then it can be contrast with historical things.

    True @Himalayan it should have a religous touch. Legacy works good because it will go good with the religous phrase. Thanks again for all your input. Really helpful. I was stumped on it.
