OK, I want to make a portmanteau, combining awesome and amazing, but I can't decide if it should be awemazing or amazeome. What do you say?

I'm learning French right now, does portmanteau mean door coat?

I've never learnt French, but I'm absolutely confident that any French native speaker would emphatically confirm this.

This is a futile effort. A similar poll was conducted several years ago and it was decided that the term bodacious encapsulated all of the essential elements.

Not at all Erik, sorry

First things first, it is porte-manteau.

I like "amazeome".

Here in the UK, it's "amazeballs!" for some reason.

Scientists recently sequenced the Amazeome. Turns out it's mostly empty fluff.

haha, this made me chuckle. I like both, but "awemazing" sounds the stupidest. In a good way. It rolls off the tongue in a nice idiotic slide.

Splendifirous. I was just about to say this is my new word, but Google and the spellchecker inform me it is taken.

Curses!
