Google also recently made apps such as Reddit Sync change their name to Sync for Reddit.

Yes, but in that situation they're still allowed to have "reddit" in the name. It seems like using docker at all in the repo name is forbidden.

I don't think so. Apparently the problem is only with repos starting with "docker". As an example, the project "dockercli" was renamed to "wharfee" due to legal issues with docker inc.
