Ok, comparing, here are the equivalent apps on my phone (A Pixel 6 from Google) Messages, Gmail (admittedly not "Mail", despite working with non Gmail email addresses), Calendar, Wallet, Home. That's a total of 1 character in difference. These have longer names, clarifying e.g. "Google Wallet" if you go look at them on play store or something, but the actually displayed names that you actually see when using your phone are pretty much identical to iOS. Other non-branded names include Calculator, Camera, Clock, Contacts, Docs, Files, Fit, Maps, News, Photos, Safety, Settings, Translate. Branded names that I believe came with include Chrome, Google, Google One, Google TV, Play Store, and YouTube. Frankly I think it's pretty appropriate that all of those come with branding.
