It's amazing that in 2020 people still use relatively common English words to name their software. Apart from all the confusion (context needed to understand what is being meant) and issues such as those you mentioned, the projects will be hard to google, risk collisions with other projects, have domain and trademark conflicts etc. ... Just make up artificial words, concatenate several terms etc. people. Though in this particular case, conventions like "has to end with 'sh' because ... cargo cult" and "must be easy to type" probably played a role.
