A name that doesn't exist on google? So what exactly would that be?

It is very obvious if you google "pdf pep" python enhancement proposals or pepsi is not going to show up.

Naming is hard, I have a dream that people would stop complaining about it. There is names/acronyms for literally everything, the chance of you finding something unique is very very small.

Everybody's Google results are different these days. They put you in a bubble. Hence, saying "if you Google you should see result X or Y" isn't necessarily true.

I would say for acronyms containing 2, 3, 4 letters these are all going to be taken at this point.

What matters is how much do the acronyms overlap. Pepsi (food & drink) has nothing to do with PDF editors (tech).

pEp (or p≡p) [1] on Android is a nice K-9 fork with material design and GPG support / opportunistic encryption. Its not very well known though.

Worst would've been if there's a PEP directly related to PDF.

Google > pdf pep

Nope. First page is mostly CDC, WHO, etc. Nothing about python or this project.

Yep, naming is hard. And I like the name Wine most.

(Wine is not emulator)

Thank you for understanding. :)
