Does game name impact visibility on app store?

Hope you guys had a Merry Christmas. Am just coming to the completion of my second app, and deciding a name. Just wondering, is there any significant impact on sales and visibility - mainly on release date I guess if your app name begins with A, because if I'm not mistaken the release date is ordered alphabetically. E.g 'Monkey Tales', or 'A Monkey's Tale' - would it make much difference?

Happy New Year.

    Yes the Release dates are alphabetical and Therefore "A Moneys Tale" would be at the top of the release dates list while "Monkey Tales" would be half way down prob on the Second page. That is the only place I know of that it matters though. All the other lists are sorted by rank on the device.

    Yes and also think of things that people might click into for example "extra linguistically translational device" or "crazy biker steves game" to make these names look appealing try assorter and more popular vocabulary such as "crazy steves BIKEZ" or "comprehensive translator"
    Hope this helps,
    Jack

    Thanks guys for the input. I think in the end I would rather have a name which is more appropriate rather than forcibly making it into the A category, and as you say Tendrmer, it shouldn't affect anywhere else, so hopefully won't be too bad if it is halfway down the page on release.
