Omg! English is not my main language and I did not know about this second meaning :( This reminds me that most of the time when I try to find a name for something I go to urban dictionary, just in case :D I forgot to check this time...

Anyway, I do not plan to change the name for now. If it becomes obvious that it is offensive for some I will definitely consider this.

Raccoon and "Coon" are very different things. Being said Mockoon doesn't actually make that much sense, raccoons aren't known for mocking. Mockingbirds are, perhaps "Mockingbird"? MockBird? I'm sure you'll figure it out.
All mockingbirds are already used :) I personally like mockoon, sure Raccoon are not known for mocking, but it's the raccoon who mock APIs, why not? Microsoft is far from creating "micro" softs :)
