If people agree with me that full GSL names are better, I will deprecate
the old function names but keep them around for some time (perhaps a
very long time).

By the way, backward compatibility aside, what is your opinion on this
matter ?

I guess the consistency with gsl naming is a good argument, although I'm not totally sure if it's necessary to keep the whole "gsl_sf_" or if just "gsl_" would be better since it's shorter. But then again that wouldn't be very logical either, so I guess it's best to keep the original gsl function names.
