The real hubris will be to name a model Turing, or Alan if you’re a bit more discrete.

I had to double check they hadn't already done so; the GPT-3 models were called ada, babbage, curie, and davinci.
At least GPT is pretty "unique" and they've not polluted search (except for those looking for the GUID Partition Table, RIP).

Any name you pick will immediately override anything that comes before - naming a model Socrates would confuse searches, for example (and it's why I hate the rename of iTunes to "Music" which is a generic term!).
