I like Ocean, as suggested by nickyhavey. Could work, but I haven't checked to see if it already exists. Hive seems ok to me, but I also didn't know there was already a hive blockchain.. Damn, maybe the name was chosen in private/haste due to the fact this had to be done without too much noise and well, before JS catches wind? Not sure what Tron could've done about it, even if they did decide to actually read anything posted here that would be deemed relevant. Lol Either way, if there are legal issues that come about with the name then I assume there will be an opportunity for the community to add some input on the matter. I believe @dpoll is in favor of this fork at least, not sure abiut the name. We can get a poll going for some new names or whether or not we should come up with a new one pretty easily.
Edit: just saw nickyhavey posted the same idea for ocean

Hive...? Or can we choose a different name?
I like Ocean too! I think that's a good one! Or at least some variation or alternate spelling of it to make it more unique and original. I haven't checked either and at this point I don't plan to because I don't see much interest outside of yourself and a few other people who commented or expressed similar sentiments in Discord.
Maybe in the future we could campaign to get the name changed but I think that might be confusing and hurt the coin, so I'm not sure I would pursue that. I dunno what to say. I'm probably going to write one more post about this and express my frustrations and then move on.
And yes they will likely say that it had to be done without noise before JS catches on, but, they say similar with stuff like the Patriot Act which I oppose. I don't think it's setting a good image to create make quick decisions under emergency powers, better I think to take our time and think about it and consult the broader community.
If there are legal issues, hopefully we can just change and don't get sued outright.
Then hopefully they let us choose as a community next time.
I'd be happy to do the Dpoll thing, but, they've already announced Hive and I was on their discord and they said it's baked into the code and can't be changed for a while. Maybe in the future we can change it. As I mentioned though, I'm not sure if that is a good idea. It might hurt the value and be confusing... So.. I dunno what to say.
