Nobody likes "ECMAScript". What a dog's breakfast of a name. Is Webscript already taken? If not I vote for that. I guess those node weirdos who want to write commandline programs using it might complain, but I think we can afford to lose them.

Call it whatever you want. The name you pick is an irrelevant aside. That is why Microsoft used to call it JScript, because the name doesn't matter as long as its not that one protected name.
