"xwiki-invitation" sounds good to me.

One nice feature that used to be there is "invite mailing list". I'm not
sure it's supported in the current version. It allowed to send a message to
a list such as [email protected] and all users clicking the link from that
email were able to register for a period of 30 days (or something like
that). Maybe a bit dangerous from a security standpoint though.
