No 'Untitled' Projects

It's seriously annoying how much “Untitled” Projects there are. You could search up Untitled, and connect it with a random number (Ex: Untitled-23) and still get 5000-10000 results in the project's tab. I think that before you share a project, if it's untitled, you have to name it. Please tell me if you support, and if you don't, please explain why.

Edit: Oh. My. Gosh. If you search “Untitled-3” you get 78,000 results.

Edit 2: So, basically it would work like one of these two: (Thanks Sheep_maker!)

Both solutions allow people to name their projects Untitled if they really want to.

Edit 3: Note, this suggestion is for SHARED projects. If it's unshared, by all means it can be untitled. I have tons of those, and it would be annoying to have to name them everytime I accidentallly make one, haha

if your trying to find a untitled project then just search the project name and then the name of the creator and i should come up

Still, it's annoying. It would be easier if the creator could take two seconds to make a name. Besides, the project looks more appealing with a name anyway.

No support. Why would you search for untitled projects in the first place?

I don't, because it's too hard. What I'm saying is, it'd be easier to find a specific project if its named. And, it's more appealing this way. Scratch would look cleaner~

I think Scratch is fine the way it is…If people left their project unnamed, they probably did it on purpose, and I don't think a pop-up will help the problem, unless it forcing them to name it, which would be annoying. Nice idea, tho

My suggestion is forcing them to name it, though I don't see why that's annoying? It would be more appealing, and gives viewers a preview of the game/animation/story/art/etc.
