Suggestion : smaller cockroaches belong to the family Ectobiidae.

How about EctoDB ?

(I actually love the name CockroachDB but it seems to be an intractable problem for some!)

I like the name but there's potential for confusion with Ecto[1]

Dagnabit, we're running out of words!

Well, all Cockroaches belong to the order Blattodea... but BlattoDB conjures the wrong feelings.

I'm sure these have been offered before, inspiration from nature:

TardigraDB (Water bears)

EchinoDB (starfish)

Morphallaxis

BorgDB (OK, that one is Star Trek!)
