Yes, but it will be forked and maintained by other people anyways.

Python 2 is forever, best get used to it.

I guess they wouldn't be allowed to call it "Python"?

Seems weird to downvote. Python is a trademark of the Python foundation and if you de-eol something they want to eol I don't think they'd let you use the name.
