Yes, the hardest thing is to think of a name. I don't think you can rename
merge to union, since I suspect you chose merge originally because "union"
is a keyword. In strict set terms, the proposed new function really is the
union, whereas the existing merge is something else, a sort of "conditional"
union.

Maybe you can leave merge as is, and call the new thing simple_union, or
union_with, to get around the keyword problem. I think I favour
simple_union.
