Unfortunately whenever I see the name, I am always reminded of part of the anatomy

I think it was named so for a reason: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endoplasmic_reticulum

personally i find it a beautiful match

Reticulum just means net or net-like structure.

I am not a native speaker, but I can't figure out what you are getting at. I have a hard time imagining you meant this:

> The reticulum is the second chamber in the four-chamber alimentary canal of a ruminant mammal.

I guess, on the internet nobody knows you're a ruminant mammal...

Or maybe "rectum".

That's what I suspected, but it's actually pretty weird to associate "rectum" as it's quite a dissimilar word, sharing nothing but a few letters. Like, "referendum" sounds like ass too? I mean weird, unless that's where your mind is anyway.
