Are dashes allowed in your names? Can I suggest instead "grpc-cpp" or 
"grpc-cxx" ? The multiplexing of "c" to mean "call" and also "the C 
programming language" has always bothered me. This also makes it clear that 
C++ is one among many gRPC languages (like grpc-java, grpc-go, grpc-swift, 
grpc-node repo names), not the "natural" choice.
