Edit: what would you think about something like RealWorld Paintee?

Sound hokey - no likee! ;D
Seriously. No. :)
tomos:
For me, [RealWorld] is a bit hard to pronounce (maybe native speakers do not have this problem) due to the amount of Rs and Ls. The RW is even longer (R-double-U). I have hard time imagining someone recommending the software on the street or in the pub and the other side remembering it correctly

this would *not* be a problem with native speakers, but I'm sure you will have a lot of non-native english speakers using the app as well...
NigelH:
Watch out for the similarity (in name mostly) to Real-Draw
That was the first association that came to mind.
cranioscopical:
I feel like I am not in control, like the name just happened, not like I chose it. RealWorld is kind of random

Some accidental events turn out to be a godsend. Real World has connotations of practicability and reliability.
FWIW I'm with 40hz… no paintee, please no paintee — too suckee!

This also hints that this is a newer thing
