I like short names, and I think "FxOS" is well accepted as the dev moniker
for Firefox OS. I suggest "FxOS Desktop."

I think whatever name we chose we should stop distinguishing (externally at
least) between Mulet and the Simulator Add-on. They should both be thought
of as the same thing, but you can either run it from command line or
through WebIDE.

Internally we can call one FxOS Desktop and the other one FxOS Desktop
Add-on (or something like that).
