Not really. I personally can live with the current  names...I was  
just trying to report the state of play as I understand it. Nameing  
these suckers is damn hard, I'm finding.

EL++     OWL-Ont
DL Lite  OWL-Rel (for relational?)
OWL-R  OWL-Rul

These have the advantage of being somewhat consistent and equi- 
repellent. The disadvantage is that they are very repellent :(

I guess we could try single letters across the board:

OWL E
OWL D
OWL R

These all potentially scan:

	OWLy
	OWLed
	OWLer

But, that sucks too :(

One could try modeling names on DLP:

OWL EDL (for EL++ DL)
OWL RDL (for relational DL)
OWL DLP (for description logic programs)

Or
	EON (Existential ONtologies, conflicts with the EON workshop)
	RON (Relational ONtolgoies, conflicts with people I know)
	FON (Forwardchaingingrules/Full ONtologies, could be fun)

Ok, I got *nothin*. Sorry. I can live with the current names, I guess.

Cheers,
Bijan.
