> I doubt that. Define 'good name'.
A good name is pronoucable, spellable, memorable. Common English words can be good choices. Compare the number of common English words (thousands) with the number of Sourceforge, Github, Google Code, Codeplex, Bitbucket, etc. projects (millions).
> Ok, why not just name it jQuery then?
jQuery is a) perhaps the world's most popular project in the domain of Javascript libraries, and b) not a proper English word.
'Derby' is a relatively common English word and two Derby projects are in mildly different domains. I don't personally know of anyone using either project (unlike of course 'jQuery').
