Naming could be better or more differentiated -- "Flow" is already used in the closely related space of front-end development and javascript (flow typing).

It doesn't matter. There's thousands of basic words occupied by some more or less relevant Javascript tool or framework. Don't let that get in the way of naming your products.

Agreed. Also flow has been utterly demolished by typescript and is on the way out, so it will be even less of a problem in the future.

As well as a FTP app for macOS, Sharing service for the Opera browser, Microsoft Flow, Samsung Flow and so on. While it's a word used all over the place, i would try to name it to something more ”unique”.
