“Reajure” might be better. Halfway between “reassure” and “erasure”.

Leiningen will actually complain with this message if you try to make a project name that is too 'punny':

  Sorry, names such as clojure or *jure are not allowed.
  If you intend to use this name ironically, please set the
  LEIN_IRONIC_JURE environment variable and try again.
edit: this did not stop me from starting such a project https://github.com/tomjakubowski/dujure
Hah, that’s delightful! And a good lint rule besides. The Haskell world has a disproportionate number of packages whose names begin with H. Apparently my own joke wasn’t appreciated, though. :(
"reajure" sounds like it is about asking for something to be done twice ("re-" + "adjure".)
