I don't think there is a guideline, but there is tradition (sometimes
not followed) of conventional names for GNU mailing lists, which are:

  address@hidden  address@hidden  address@hidden  address@hidden

See https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/ for a list of all GNU
mailing lists.

I agree that such name might feel more “natural” in some sense.
Nonetheless I don't think it makes sense to break a convention for such
little benefit.

So I encourage everyone to stop following their mood of the day in
regards of choosing a name.  Please!  :)
