Assuming the naming rights will be sold off. But we will still need an unofficial name chosen by us fans. Something catchy that rolls off the tongue.
Let's get your names in here rather than having to sift through the other thread.
Any good options I'll add to the list. Once we have a decent selection we can then poll on it for our favourites.

- The Triangle
- Stratfield / Stratfield Brake
- Parkway / Parkway Stadium
- Cherwell Park
- The New Manor

the triangle sounds good to me. I’m happy to sell the name off to whoever pays the most and we’ll call it what we want. I’d love a properly named Jim smith stand but other than I’d just like us to have a new home that feels like it’s our new home not some greedy bastards vanity project.
 
There is a theory/reason why football clubs don't like new stadiums acquiring a name among the public before opening, and that is because that name tends to stick. This makes it harder for any naming rights to be successfully sold, as the stadium already has a name.

It's why Spurs new stadium is still known as the "new Tottenham Hotspur Stadium" rather than anything else, as the Spurs board feel that way a naming rights deal is more attractive, as I'm sure no Spurs fans refer to it as that, so they still have a chance to sell the naming rights.

I feel our new stadium already has its de facto name, and that is The Triangle, as that's how we all refer to it, and will do for the next three years. By that time the name will have stuck, so it may make a naming rights deal harder to seal. I think the club have already missed a trick here.

I don’t expect the bidding process for naming rights will be very open with the directors using it as a vehicle for getting money into the club via one of their business interests eg Bangkok Glass
