Hi sz4kerto, writer of bamboo here, I agree that the name's clashing with other tools' names makes it a poor choice. Because bamboo was a prototype and initially for internal use we did not do a lot of name research and were not aware of those other tools when we chose the name, maybe we will rename it once it hits beta. We chose the name bamboo because it uses pandas as the processing engine.
