Trying to use Orgmode to customise emacs and make custom named init file within Dropbox folder. It's been a long time since I used emacs and am foggy. A few questions. (alien.top)

Hi there, I'm trying to brush off my emacs and Orgmode since it's been years. I'm hitting a few snags and am also wondering about current standards since there has been many updates.

My goal:

Use Orgmode to customise my emacs and init files while using the Dropbox directory. I would also like to use a custom named init file so it's like eckoinit.el instead of init.el (For easier recognition and modification).

Overall, I'd like to sync and use emacs from different computers using the same configs.

I know one of my current snags is I can't remember how to tell emacs from Orgmode to use a differently named init file. I feel like this should be an obvious answer that I should have found by now and I feel silly.

Thanks for your time!
