We could disambiguate a little by using the German verb "babbeln" 
instead (which has quite the same meaning as "to babble"): babbeln = 
ba(b)bel + n where n could stand for "new generation" ... ;-)

But since "babbeln" is also used to refer to the dialect spoken in the 
area around Frankfurt am Main ("sie babbeln hessisch" = "they speak 
hessian"), perhaps that would cause too much confusion :-)

mine too.

So we now have four votes for "polyglossia", and three for "babble". But 
let's wait for Will, Bruno, Yves, Axel and others to give their vote :-)
