Brilliant. I absolutely love this, and will absolutely use Font Awesome in my next project.
While the name Font Awesome is catchy, it doesn't say much about the product, and won't carry seo juice or meaning for your main selling point: better icons. A name like "fonticons" (pronounced like "emoticons") might be stronger, and you could own that term which may go generic (like "kleenex") if the technique is widely adopted.
In fact, you could literally own it. After making sure a google search was relatively clean, and a USPTO.gov trademark search was clear, I just registered the domain fonticons.com, and would be happy to give it to you if you want it as a token of appreciation for your project.
I agree, absolutely brilliant idea. You've essentially solved monochromatic image scaling in the web. I can't wait until genre-specific fonticons come out.
