Good ways to name django projects which contain only one app

When creating projects which contain just a single app, what are the good ways to name the project?

I can think without any confusion how to name my app but I need a project name for it. (Can i create a app without a project? If yes, Is it good to do that ?)

[Update] I saw some projects on github which contain single app are named as django-[appname]. I liked it and will be following it for naming my projects which contain a single app. Django might be overkill for single app projects but as of now i have just started learning django so i have only one app in my projects.

Thanks

I'm very new to Django, but in what I've read of the documentation I haven't found any naming conventions for projects as they depend on too many factors. Instead, use general names for projects and more specific names for apps:

project = humanresource
apps = salaries, badge, whatelse... 

Remember that projects come first, and apps can be reused in different projects.
