I think we (Debian and GNU, and then everybody else) should adopt the same names for each product. Having two conflicting names for essentially the same thing will be even more confusing. We have to choose; I don't think dithering is really option.
As a third party builder naming builds after a proposed name for GNUzilla's future version of SeaMonkey, my immediate concern is with any objections GNUzilla might have about my use of the name (which I perceive as theirs, though without the trademark issues involved with MozCo.) I've seen LessZilla ( http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/gnuzilla/ ), Gnuzilla ( http://www.gnu.org/software/gnuzilla/ ), and IceApe ( http://www.asoftsite.org/s9y/archives/118-IceLizard-application-names.html ) suggested for the name of the real thing. It does seem a good idea for Debian and GNUzilla to use the same name. When there's a "real" LessZilla, or Gnuzilla, or IceApe, or whatever, I'll happily compile appropriately named builds of it!
