The term "clone" has been used in the storage industry for several decades now. It has a very specific meaning, as does the term "snapshot". I understand it might not make sense to you personally, but you're just going to confuse anyone you're talking to referring to it by another name. You might as well start calling containers "light virtual machines". You'll get an equal number of blank stares and confusion from whomever you're talking to.
