Why do programmers have so little imagination when it comes to names? It should almost never be the case that project names conflict

"It should almost never be the case that project names conflict"

My corollary to this is "You should never reach for a language you are not fluent in for a name. Especially, just stop it with using Japanese words to name stuff please ffs"
