I mean you can fault them for "Max < Ultra" but once you get over that the naming is about 100000x easier than anything out of Intel/AMD/Qualcomm.

M1: (base), Pro, Max, Ultra, <maybe Mac Pro chip?>

M2: (base), Pro, <one would assume we will ge Max/Ultra as well>

Compared to the competition (or rather, other chip makers since Apple doesn't sell it's chips) this seems way easier.

I think it doesn't help that the computers are called Pro as well, so you could have a MacBook Pro with M1 Max, etc.

I mean there was another comment on this thread that had to clarify that when they said "M2 Pro" they had meant the "MacBook Pro with M2" not a future "M2 Pro" chip.

MacBook Pro with M1 Pro as opposed to the MacBook with M1 Pro. Definitely no confusion coming down the pipe.
