Isn't there something really perfect about people working on a language model either not trying or outright failing to use that language model to tell them if their project name already exists?

On their github they reference a related project called "HuggingFace" so you know the sky's the limit with the names in this field, could have been called anything else really.

Quick jargon literacy boost: "HuggingFace" is a platform tailored to hosting and sharing ML repositories -- like Github for AI. The parent company, "Hugging Face", is also in and of itself a major contributor to several AI research projects & tooling.

Ironically, they still managed to hit a namespace collision... albeit self-inflicted.

the actual platform is called "HuggingFace Hub". The company itself is called "HuggingFace" or "Hugging Face" (I have seen it referred to in both ways, I am unsure which is officially correct). There is no namespace collision.

The formal business name is “Hugging Face, Inc” [0], but only because the lawyers managed to talk them out of using a literal “”

I think you’ve illustrated the problem the lawyers were protecting them from.
