Frankly, yes. It's easy to refer to F13 as Goddard, just as it's common for those in Ubuntu to talk about Feisty, Gutsy, Karmic, Lucid, etc., in referring to those releases. In fact, more times than not during the course of a presentation, I'll refer to the release by name rather than by number.
But I've never really used the slogans when describing any Fedora release, so I don't think we should be comparing release names to release slogans.
My point -- maybe missed, maybe not -- is how important is a slogan if choosing one is causing problems and taking away from time better spent elsewhere?
[Incidentally, I am just north of ambivalent about the slogan: If we have one, fine; if not, oh well. So I really don't have a horse in this race, so to speak.]

To be honest.. are Release Names really used by people when talking
about Fedora? I see that more often in the Ubuntu/Debian communities
than ever in Fedora/RHL communities.
