As far as I know, it's still unkown...I don't know if they just haven't decided, or if they're just keeping quiet. I personally like "Stingray" or "SS" I'd like the SS to give the name SS more justice, as we've seen the overuse of the title SS on cars that have no business with it. Just my $02

I like the SS also but I think the term was used so losely with GM with a number of vehicles cobalt, ssr, trailblazer, just to name a few. I'm not saying that these are bad cars just not the kind of cars that come to mind when I think of the term SS, to me the ss badge has been tarnished and truthfully I think the only way that they can bring it back is by stop using it on cars that are undeserving and just have it on the new camaro, I believe the camaro can rectify the SS badge once again.

the SSR and TBSS at least use RWD and have 400 hp.
Stingray gets my vote.
Although the ZR1 will tie in some heritage, (and also make the older ZR1's more appealing) I still think calling this new beast the ZR1 would take off some of the shine.
I prefer Stingray as a more wicked nameplate.
I pray to GOD that GM doesn't call it the Corvette SS.
