Dear Friends, I have two questions concerning the sentence recited below.
One question is if I should say "When selecting the name of" or "When selecting the name for" in this context? Or the both variants are ok ?
The second question is which of the two variants sounds "more English" - please do not suggest any further improvements - just vote
Thank you !
