Did we ever come to a conclusion on this point?
Sorry I have been putting the naming thing off as this thread
sparked a bit of interest in the package which lead to a lot of great
input and bugfixing. There have been a lot of good suggestions and no
consensus which has made the even task harder.
My friendly advice is to keep the name you chose and not entertain any more suggestions. The package is your work, and you are generously contributing it to Emacs and the community. It is yours to name.

While friendly, gentle suggestions are ok, the pressure being put on authors in this process is unbecoming, to say the least. It definitely discourages further submissions. I'm noticing that the GNU ELPA submission process is developing a poor reputation in the outside world due to this kind of bikeshedding.
