I've no idea if the name picked was done purposely but the purpose looks similar to ADL (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Architecture_description_language). This language is used as a modeling language to create and manipulate systems. If I remember well, we used it in software engineering course in a pipeline to transform language to other languages. That was just to point at the coincidence, I'm not an Haskell user, so I can't really know if they are related in some way.
