Naming it ASP.NET 5 would clash with .NET Framework ASP.NET 5 MVC, hence the ASP.NET Core 5 name.

Wow, I take it you are the author of that post. That is incredible. You need some sort of presidential medal for that.

I see all 'Core' names being dropped with the release of .NET 7. So it would be .NET 7, ASP.NET 7 , EF7
I look forward to the announcements of Office Core and Windows Core.

Reminds me of this: https://www.itprotoday.com/net/windows-net-server-first-look
And a bunch of people probably had a bunch of meetings and sat around and thought "Yes, this is what we will name it!" FFS!
So no excuse for .Net 6 since there was no ASP MVC 6 right?

There was. ASP.NET MVC 6 and EF6 were the last versions for .NET Framework 4.x. Hopefully with .NET 7 next year and all the versions aligned they will drop the "Core" name for just ASP.NET 7 and EF7.

And someone will finally cross out that Jira (er, Azure DevOps) task on their list. "Harmonize branding and version numbers across all major .Net technology offerings", only took them ten years or so.
