Thank you. I appreciate you pointing this out.

It seems like Delve is a popular name for software, which makes sense.

I am officially looking for a new name for this software.

It used to be called Flashlight, as in "A portable tool to shine some light on your data", but I liked the name Delve and a naive google search didn't reveal any projects named delve.

As an aside, Delve is not only popular in software naming, but it also appears in the English language writing quite a lot.

Wish I could help, but names are hard.
They really are.
