Bikeshedding is a major pain for developing in large projects.
Naming bikeshedding is one of the worst kind of bikeshedding.
By now I'm sure of two things:
- People will not agree on a name.
- People will diverge any technical discussion again and again and again because they need to discuss naming.
So in the end most likely there will be some formal or informal survey and then the language teem will do a top-down decisions for one of the more well liked candidates, it's as far as I can tell pretty much the best way to go. (Theoretically you could have a vote, but then you need a proper not easily manipulated voting system people need to take serious, or it will be named not yeet in the end because people are trolls).
EDIT: Also this is not a developer discussion so I guess it's fine here ;)
