In 2019, the developers claimed that the name was a “temporary placeholder” and that it would be changed as soon as all “necessary legal formalities” had been clarified. They wrote, “We should be able to announce the name for the OS soon.” Unfortunately, nothing has changed since then. At least they seem to be aware that it’s a bad name.
The FAQ on the website states: “It’s the current project codename, we are planning to introduce a new and more convenient name for our mobile ROM in a few months.” But that has probably been there for a long time as well.

Trademark law. It can be a pain in the ass, especially if you can’t think of an original name.
