you should consider picking another name to avoid confusion with Universal JavaScript.

Hehe, how can it possibly be confusing compared with any other library name in the JavaScript universe?

except Universal JavaScript is not a library name, it's a concept used by many other libraries. Look at this article published yesterday, "Netflix.com adopts Universal JavaScript" : http://www.infoq.com/news/2015/08/netflix-universal-javascript
Maintaining this confusion will not be profitable either for you or for your users.

You could say that about a lot of things. ReactJS (which I love), is a also a concept and a library. BaconJS is arguably a lot more reactive than ReactJS, and so is RXJS, but does that cause confusion? Furthermore, it's just a name and a pet project. Anyone's free to create their own project with same name under their own github account.

I think he's done it on purpose so people will assume UniversalJS is THE goto library for "universal" JS
