Michael Sayre Just posted this, confirming that the two new classes releasing with a playtest on the 31st will have 3 syllable names, and each name will have 3 vowels each. This is oddly specific, but also very vague. We also know one of them will be rare, and they will coincide with the death of a major god, so divine classes are likely but not confirmed.
Some possible names:
Commander
Crusader
Avatar
Potato
Banana
Avenger
God eater
M. Sayre
Fighter two
Chronical
Heralder

Suppose it depends how you interpret "three vowels."
Chronomancer has a, e, & o.
Runeblade has a, e, & u.
Dreamweaver...well Dreamweaver is a no-go either way.

Neither of those are 3-syllable words though, no matter how you pronounce them.

I'd like to see the Arcanist. That was a nice mix of wizard and sorcerer. If done well, we can use that instead of the wizard.
Some kind of Bloodrager would be fun.
What else could they add that we don't have? hmm.
They said none of the new classes were, um, old classes. They're NEW new, not "published a few years ago" new

Given Michael Sayre posted a hint about having written the words “seneschal, weaver, broken, destiny” in somethjng he is working on AND has worked on a Commander class (Battlelord) and veilweaver classes (Akashic Mysteries) for third party publishers (Amora Games and Dreamscarred Press respectively) I still think it could be Commander/Seneschal and (Word/Name)Weaver… Fateweaver works.

I clearly didn’t read the OP clearly enough.
3 syllables.
3 vowels.
Commander works. As does Strategist.
Fateweaver does not work, as it has two vowels, one that occurs three times (e), and one that occurs twice (a).
Godcaller works. And Michael Sayre likes Godcallers of Sarkoris.
Symbiote works, even if “y” is “sometimes a vowel”.
Banana doesn’t work, because it tastes yummy.
I like the idea of Apostate as having something to do with a dead god. Or Incarnate…

Are you insane?
They are trying to keep it a balanced system, and you call for a class more powerful and impactful than a Fighter/Bard dual class?
Thank Aroden that there aren't any 3 syllable words for Underwater Basket Weaver.
Fine.

Spoil sport.

Anyone else not thrilled that Paizo will be putting so much development against a Rare class that many may never get a chance to play?
Not really. Having Rare options is good. Gunslinger and Inventor are both Uncommon. That hasn't caused any problems.
Who are these 'many' people who won't get to play with the Rare options?

I'm pretty happy with the idea that they're going to be messing around int he weird crevices of potential gameplay... and the Rare tag is an occasional side effect of that.

I'll answer your snarky question with a snarky question.
How did you come about the omniscience to assert that Gunslinger and Inventor being Uncommon hasn't caused any 'problems?'
Joking aside, not all tables allow Gunslingers and Inventors. It's not a stretch to imagine that some will also not allow whatever this Rare class ends up being.
I guess I feel there are other, more universal concepts I'd like to see developed before digging into niche classes (shaman, shifter, inquisitor & medium all come to mind quickly). And I don't need to go through my GM as gatekeeper to play what I want to play.
