Good point.  How about Net::DNS::Resolver::DirectAxfer.  Or maybe
something more friendly like "DirectTransfer".

Apologies for coming in late to this discussion, but since AXFR is a very specific protocol, it's likely that someone might spell it in a search query. I wouldn't try to avoid the proper technical term. Imagine if Net::SMTP was Net::SimpleMailTransferProtocol or Net::MailTransfer!?!

Given that, why not just:

* Net::DNS::AXFR

That's pretty obviously a tool for doing DNS AXFR. If there's a specific feature that it provides (i.e. "direct"), just tack that on as a more specific qualifier:

* Net::DNS::AXFR::Direct

Or, better yet, since I seem to recall seeing that this is a querying tool:

* Net::DNS::AXFR::Client
