That's actually irrelevant. There is no option to name it something *other* than either PyPI or Cheeseshop. Naming it something else has been tried and failed tremendously, so I won't try it again (and being the main PyPI maintainer at the moment, nobody else has a chance to try something else - if you want to give it a name, contribute to it for a few years, then have your own try). FWIW, "distribution" is quite misleading. SuSE is a Distribution (of Linux), and so is Debian; ActivePython is a distribution of Python (I think - before coming to that area, I would have though that "the distribution of Python varies across continents").
