I like Chong's approach of asking Tom Tromey to change his archive's name.
"GNU ELPA" is a really nice, logical, memorable name. There's been no
confusion when I've used it.
Failing that, so far we have these alternatives (including jokes too):
EUROPA
GELD
GELPA
GEXL
GREL
GREXL
REEL
REL
REXL
Thanks
