I like the actual name : D, but there is some issues with it.
D is just to small to be able to do a search on it on
internet, a lot of search engine just can't index correctly
something to small, and I think it's just normal.

Seriously whatever cons there are to a name change cannot
possibly outweigh the power of the Internet. If you cannot find
it on the Internet, then it simply does not exist.
As an added benefit, all those old D1 websites that have been
dead for a few years will at least stop showing up during search
results.
If there's no official name change, we should define an
unofficial name among ourselves by holding a contest and vote on
a winner, then we start using the new name everywhere. Problem
solved.
