I like Chong's approach of asking Tom Tromey to change his archive's name.
"GNU ELPA" is a really nice, logical, memorable name.  There's been no
confusion when I've used it.

Failing that, so far we have these alternatives (including jokes too):

EUROPA
GELD
GELPA
GEXL
GREL
GREXL
REEL
REL
REXL

Thanks
