# Fix Frostwall vs Firefrost Naming
# Fix Frostwall vs Firefrost Naming - Clarification Guide
**Status:** Ready
**Priority:** Tier 3 - Documentation
**Time:** 15 minutes
**Last Updated:** 2026-02-16
**Time Estimate:** 15 minutes
**Last Updated:** 2026-02-17
## Problem
Inconsistent terminology: "Frostwall" (network security) vs "Firefrost" (brand). Clarify usage in all docs.
---
## Solution
- **Frostwall:** Network security protocol (GRE tunnels, DDoS protection)
- **Firefrost:** Company/brand name
## The Problem
## Tasks
1. Audit all docs for naming confusion
2. Update incorrect usages
3. Document terminology in standards
4. Add to style guide
Throughout the documentation and communications, "Frostwall" and "Firefrost" are sometimes used interchangeably or incorrectly. This creates confusion about whether we're talking about:
- The security protocol
- The company brand
- A specific feature
## Success Criteria
- ✅ Naming clarified throughout docs
- ✅ Style guide updated
**We need consistent terminology that everyone understands.**
**Fire + Frost + Foundation** 💙🔥❄️

## Official Terminology
### FIREFROST (The Brand)
**What it is:** The company, the network, the community
**Official name:** Firefrost Gaming
**Usage:**
- "Welcome to Firefrost Gaming"
- "Firefrost subscriber network"
- "The Firefrost community"
- "Firefrost modpack servers"
- "Fire + Frost philosophy"
**When to use:**
- Company/brand references
- Marketing materials
- Player-facing communications
- Social media
- Domain names (firefrostgaming.com)
**Examples:**
- ✅ "Firefrost Gaming is launching in Spring 2026"
- ✅ "Join the Firefrost community"
- ✅ "Firefrost subscriber perks"
- ❌ "The Frostwall Gaming network" (incorrect)
---
### FROSTWALL (The Security Protocol)
**What it is:** The GRE tunnel security architecture
**Official name:** The Frostwall Protocol
**Usage:**
- "The Frostwall Protocol protects our servers"
- "Frostwall GRE tunnels"
- "Frostwall deployment"
- "Iron Wall security via Frostwall"
**When to use:**
- Technical documentation
- Infrastructure discussions
- Security architecture
- Internal operations
- Server configuration
**Examples:**
- ✅ "The Frostwall Protocol uses GRE tunnels for DDoS protection"
- ✅ "Frostwall deployment blocks Mailcow installation"
- ✅ "Testing Frostwall tunnel connectivity"
- ❌ "Firefrost tunnels" (incorrect - too vague)
- ❌ "The Frostwall gaming network" (incorrect - that's Firefrost)
---
## Why "Frostwall"?
**Etymology:**
- **Frost:** From "Firefrost" - represents technical precision, protection, "cold" defense
- **Wall:** Iron Wall security philosophy - impenetrable boundaries
**Conceptual alignment:**
- Firefrost = Fire (warm, community) + Frost (cool, technical)
- Frostwall = The "Frost" side protecting the infrastructure
- Like a fortress wall made of ice - beautiful but impenetrable
**Not called "Firewall":**
- Too generic (firewall is a standard networking term)
- Doesn't align with "Frost" technical precision theme
- Could be confused with UFW (Uncomplicated Firewall)
---
## Quick Reference
**Am I talking about the company/brand/community?**
→ Use **Firefrost Gaming** or **Firefrost**
**Am I talking about the security architecture?**
→ Use **The Frostwall Protocol** or **Frostwall**
**Am I talking about both?**
→ "Firefrost Gaming's infrastructure is protected by the Frostwall Protocol"

## Common Mistakes

**Right:** "Welcome to Firefrost Gaming!"
**Wrong:** "Configure the Firefrost tunnels"
**Right:** "Configure the Frostwall tunnels"
