I don't really care one way or another if it's called a "wiki" or a "wikia", but changing the name of an established wiki probably isn't good for SEO, so I can't see my wiki(a) changing its name.

The discussion of uppercase versus lowercase is interesting too. So "Wikia" is the company and a "wikia" is one wiki (yes, it's a kind of wiki even if Wikia wants to call it a wikia) hosted by Wikia. That's confusing in German, as someone already pointed out, but if Avatar Wiki (your example) changes its name, the new name will obviously be "Avatar Wikia" with a capital W because that's how titles work in English.

The Start a wikia page, which is now so prominently featured in the navbar, still says "Name your wiki". I'm sure you'll get around to change that, but what will happen to the word "Wiki" (with a capital W!) to the right of the wiki name text box? Will it be changed to "wikia" or "Wikia" and become part of the name?
