A counter thought.
Some time back a small but useful browser called Netscape skipped numbers to bring its numbers in line with IE.
I always felt that this was pandering to IE, and letting the competition set the schedule.

That said, anything but Mozilla's current numbering scheme/philosophy! Even Ubuntu's is more intelligible than that.

As for the naming idea. Two ideas:
1. Words with roughly similar meanings to koha. (I suspect there's not enough, but haven't really looked into it)
2. Other famous "gifts" (other than koha!).
