IMHO, MINI-WINDOW would be worse.  It's not
about a small window.  If someone wants to
be extra clear with the name (not needed,
if the rest of the doc string is clear about
what this is), then just use a longer name:

  MINIBUF-WINDOW

or if that's not clear enough (it should be):

  MINIBUFFER-WINDOW
