I like Mahogany, it's a little different than Chocolate.

DH looked at the photos (loaded plant and ripe tomatoes) and said "Marsha's Marvel".

You know, it really does look like light chocolate when ripe. It's a whale of a tomato. And I like Marsha's Striped Chocolate the best

Congrats on naming a new variety that you discovered!!

Stringing together other's suggestions (to share the blame):

Marsha's Marvelous Mahogany Marked Mystery Mater

M6 would be good shorthand for folks with short tags

I like ginger snap, too. I don't like the chocolate stripes name at all. I think of a much darker tomato with a very dark interior .... Just my first impression of the name. I grew not chocolate stripes last year and I struggled every time I picked it to name it. I had to look at the tag.
