I don't feel like any of your arguments have much weight, since for most applications the name only has a very vague correlation with the functionality or intended purpose, if that: see mutt, dnf, evince, firefox, ansible and so, so many more examples.

That said, point taken about the need for the community to stand behind a name before it can be adopted. Most importantly, I feel like we could both spend our time in a more productive way than argue about this, so let's just stick with the existing name unless someone comes up with a different one that manages to make everyone happy.
