That's exactly what I tried.  With the latest CVS state

(add-hook 'occur-hook (lambda () (occur-rename-buffer t)))

renames the *Occur* buffer to `*Occur: original-buffer-name*', but

(add-hook 'occur-mode-hook (lambda () (occur-rename-buffer t)))

produces a name with empty original-buffer-name (i.e. just `*Occur: *'),
because `occur-1' sets the value of `occur-revert-arguments'
after running `occur-mode-hook', but before `occur-hook'.

This would be good, but without adding original-buffer-name to the
buffer name, to produce a unique buffer name, the user can simply put

(add-hook 'occur-mode-hook 'rename-uniquely)
