I am the author of Crun and the name was chosen to emphasize it is in C, compete with runc and still read like "container run".

In retrospect, I could have chosen a better one.

The name is quite descriptive and fits the target audience perfectly as far as I’m concerned.

I knew exactly what you were going for from nothing but the name, so I think you did a great job personally.

The name is quite memorable and the points you made are valid; so please don't change it unless you have a very good reason to.

FWIW I really liked the name and think it’s creative yet terse and easy to search.

The name is fine. Pay no attention to the bikeshedding.
